ELEMENTS OF INDIAN MUSIC – The Melakarta System

Published by Mel Bay Inc in Aug 2018

The only available book that offers Western musicians access to Indian music within the realm of Western Theory and notation.  Beautifully composed etudes for piano and classical guitar  that would remind you of Bach, but within a whole new sound spectrum of scales from the Indian Melodic System of music.

If you are an avid sheet music reader, these seemingly simple, short  2-page compositions will take your reading ability to a whole new level. If you ever hoped that the next song you learnt was not in the major or minor scales, then this book is what you need to try.
