| | Indian Classical Music |
| | In both Hindustani and Carnatic music, songs (or instrumental compositions in Hindustani music) are usually (although not always) preceded by an improvised unmeasured prelude (alap/alaapana) which is sometimes extensive. | | | Hindustani music is the music of North India, involving both Hindu and Muslim musicians. | | | The rationale is specifically contrast (usually), as opposed to Turkish music where modes are chosen for a directed development, or Arabic music where the frequent modulations should be as unnoticed as possible, etc. |

| | Indian classical music encompasses a range of musical instruments, which may be used as accompaniment in a vocal performance or played solo. | | | Hindustani music has two major vocal traditions: dhrupad, which is an austere rendition of the chosen raga, and khyal, which has a great degree of embellishment and is lighter on the ear. | | | The music on the streets, regardless of whether it is an urban metalled road or a village dust track, is film music. |

| | Hindustani classical music has been a part of the American musical scene for much of this century--Ravi Shankar himself first toured America in 1932 (Shankar 1968: 68); yet a comprehensive document has yet to emerge on the subject. | | | Since its main focus is on the balance of tradition and change in the Hindustani music culture of India, it made me wonder how the American musical environment has treated the tradition of music culture from which it takes root. | | | Although there is a cohesive integrity in both the music and its cultural context, room for intracultural negotiation, such as its realization and interpretation, exists. |
