The medieval period was noteworthy in Indian History for the migration from time to time of peoples and races from West and Central Asia, into the Indian Sub-continent; this influenced the political and cultural panorama resulting in a harmonious blending of cultures. This book discusses and captures this closeness and commonality between two rich and profound music cultures of Persio-Arabian Region nd India. Its broad canvas covers the following concepts and aspects of music, which would be of interest to student of music as well as the lay reader:

  • The historical perspective of Hindustani music and the music of the Persio-Arabian Region.
  • Description and comparison of the melodic mode, Maqam and the Raga.
  • Fusion and blending of the Magan and Raga, in the medieval period in India.
  • Striking resemblance of Iqa with Tala, the metric units of the two music systems.
