Touching the soul of Hindustani classical music. The embryo of our music is found in the early Vedic chants of the second millennium BCE, which were formalized in the Sama Veda and went wherever Vedic philosophy flourished.
The embryo of our music is found in the early Vedic chants of the second millennium BCE, which were formalized in the Sama Veda and went wherever Vedic philosophy flourished. While these liturgical chants remained the domain of the priestly class, a simultaneous, parallel stream of music was to be found among the common people. The liturgical type of music developed as Margi sangeet, which one can define as music along a defined path or marg, and the other came to be known as Deshi sangeet, or music of country or deshi origin. Consequently, our classical ragas are described as being either of margi or deshi origin, signifying whether a particular musical composition was conceived by learned pundits or adopted from a commonly popular melody. This distinction, though technically accurate, is now antiquated and both streams form a single corpus.
