Fabric of aamad: a study of form and flow in Hindustani music
Author: Saxena, Sushil Kumar
Keywords: Hindustani music--Aesthetics
Hindustani music--Instruction and study
Issue Date: 1970
Description: This Paper is, in the main, an analysis of aamad. It seeks to understand what aamad 'means' and how it 'works'. As an enquiry after the meaning of a word of musical discourse, the essay is aesthetical-: and as an investigation into how aamad works - that is, how it designs itself and bewitches us in actual listening - its concern is with an aspect of musical technique. My manner is analytical; and I seek throughout to verify points of theoretical interest in terms of our actual experience of music. Emphasis on verifiability and its passion for details are two important features of Science today.
