9 reviews for The Music of Hindostan

  1. Ayush Mittal

    Excellent resource! This book is a must-have for anyone serious about understanding Hindustani classical music. Clearly written and informative. Highly recommended!

  2. Soumya Gupta

    Good overview of the basics, but could use more examples and practical applications. Still, it provides a solid foundation for further study.

  3. Kanishk Kumar

    Fascinating! This book opened my ears to a whole new world of sound. A little dense at times, but worth the effort. The author’s passion shines through.

  4. Vilvanathan T

    It was insightful to read about the history and theory. I appreciated the clarity in explaining complex concepts. It has its flaws, but a good book.

  5. Aadrika Gopal

    An okay read, but I expected more depth. Good for beginners, perhaps, but seasoned musicians might find it lacking. Not bad, but not great either.

  6. Gyan Prakash

    A decent introduction to Hindustani music, though a bit dry. The historical context was interesting, but I wished for more analysis of the music itself.

  7. Aditya Sahu

    A bit overwhelming for a newbie, but packed with information. I’ll need to read it a few times to fully absorb it all. Still, a valuable addition to my library.

  8. Manish Chauhan

    Disappointing. I found the writing style outdated and difficult to follow. The content felt repetitive and lacked the passion I was hoping for.

  9. Mrityunjay Sharma

    Incredible! Changed the way I listen to music. It’s informative, insightful, and a joy to read. A great resource for all music lovers.
