Dear Tristan, This is great material, thanks. Would it be possible to occasionally provide basic instruction on "Indian music for dummies?" Though I have in the past spent time studying Indian literature, even Mughal poetry, I never attempted to understand Indian music as I was not even well versed in Western music. Are there some basics that can be addressed that might aid opening minds to an undoubtedly vast and ancient tradition? I just got through watching lectures on the British Raj in India describing the relentless wealth extraction, brutal suppression, and market-based agricultural austerity that led to starvation of millions especially in Bengal and the Ganges valley in 1872-79, WWI, between the war, and during WWII. In this new age of oligarchy and corruption, we have a lot to learn from India.
