  1. The Ultimate Guide To South Indian Classical Music South India spans a geographical area the size of Western Europe and is home to four main languages - Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam. Despite the presence of two metropolises (Madras, now known as Chennai, and Bangalore) and a few other big cities, the majority of the population still lives in villages and small towns. This helps to explain the wide range of traditional South Indian music. The history of South Indian Music Indian music may be traced back to primordial times. In South India, art or concert music is referred to as Karnâtaka Sangîtam ("Karnatic or Carnatic music" in English). Its history is defined by the Renaissance era, which was centered in South India on the Vijayanagar empire (1336-1565). Râmâmâtya, a 16th-century Vijayanagar music scholar, established the groundwork for the current theoretical framework of South Indian music. Since the 17th century, the primary melodic material has been provided by 72 main scales (mêla). The role of music in South Indian society Music charts are never used by Indian artists. Composition (kalpita sangîta) and improvisation (manôdharma sangîta) are both significant in Carnatic music. Thousands of "songs" have been passed down from generation to generation through an oral tradition (sampradâya) or are still being produced. There is no distinct repertoire for instrumentalists and vocalists. Improvisations such as raga exposition (râga âlâpana) and theme variations (e.g. Kalpana, Svara, Niraval) are so intricately entwined with a piece that the overall effect is one of perfect musical oneness. As a result, it is difficult for an unskilled listener to distinguish the beginning and finish of an improvisation. There is no distinct repertoire for instrumentalists and vocalists.
