Indian Music in Education

This book has two aims; to act as a resource on North Indian classical music for teachers in schools, and for others working in music education; and to show how Indian music may be introduced in a creative and fruitful way into today's music classroom. This is a practical book: a special feature is the sequence of assignments for pupils, which is designed to help develop in them the sense of structure crucial to understanding Indian music. The assignments are supported by a cassette, with examples played on sitar and tabla.
