MUSIC

MUSIC is an art form whose medium is sound and silence. Its common elements are pitch, rhythm, dynamics, and the sonic qualities of timbre and texture. The creation, performance, significance, and even the definition of music vary according to culture and social context. Within “the arts”, music may be classified as a performing art, a fine art, and an auditory art.

Indian classical music is one of the oldest musical traditions in the world. The Rigveda has elements of present Indian music, with a musical notation to denote the metre and the mode of chanting. Indian classical music (marga) is monophonic, and based on a single melody line or raga rhythmically organized through talas. Hindustani music was influenced by the Persian performance practices of the Afghan Mughals. Carnatic music popular in the southern states, is largely devotional; the majority of the songs are addressed to the Hindu deities. The department offers Indian Music as an optional subject in B.A.. The college is proud to host every year light music competition “Tarannum”. Besides this the students can take full advantage of the outstanding quality of many opportunities to participate in musical activities that take place in the college.
