Indian classical music is a rich tradition that originated in South Asia and can now be found in all corners of the world. Its origin dates back to sacred vedic scriptures over 6000 years ago where chants developed a system of musical notes and rythamic cycles. Indian classical music is very closely connected to nature (Prakriti). Taking inspiration from nature, including the seasons and times of the Day to create Ragas – The Musical moods and many timely cycles or Taals. Indian classical music has the power to stir the soul and inspire one and all.
