Amit Chaudhuri – Finding the Raga
Only 1 left in stock
$10.00
By turns essay, memoir and cultural study, Alaap is Amit Chaudhuri’s singular account of his discovery of, and enduring passion for, North Indian music: an ancient, evolving tradition whose principles and practices will alter the reader’s notion of what music might – and can – be. Tracing the music’s development, Alaap dwells on its most distinctive and mysterious characteristics: its extraordinary approach to time, language and silence; its embrace of confoundment, and its ethos of evocation over representation. The result is a strange gift of a book, for musicians and music lovers, and for any creative mind in search of diverse and transforming inspiration.
Book is in “Like New” condition. Some light superficial wear and/or remainder mark might be present.
