Table of ContentsReviewsA significant contribution to Indian musical studies, breaking new ground in documentation and analysis, and in its fruitful approach to collaborative musicological method. For its systematic definition of a musical domain it should become required reading for students of North Indian music, but beyond this it supplies a wealth of new material which will lay the foundations for further research. Jonathan Katz, Ethnomusicology Forum a model for the sort of joint undertaking that should occur more often in the field of ethnomusicology... the definitive monograph on its subject. Peter Manuel, Music and Letters Dhrupad is a notable attempt to develop a context-sensitive music analysis that can uncover the inner logic of the music and identify formal archetypes within it, and it presents a carefully nuanced and extremely detailed view of dhrupad from many angles. Sanyal and Widdess's coauthorship is to be lauded, and readers may hope that it will be as much an inspiration for future collaborative projects as it is a valuable resource for the student of dhrupad. Matthew Allen, The Journal of Asian Studies The authors consistently and successfully integrate disparate but important strands of historical, theoretical, and practical knowledge throughout the narrative...In addition to its meticulous historical research, the extensive performance analysis emerges as its most significant contribution.
