Sangeetha
Sangeetha is a term that refers to music in the Indian classical tradition. It encompasses various forms of music, including vocal and instrumental styles, and is often associated with the rich cultural heritage of India. Sangeetha plays a vital role in various art forms, including dance and drama, and is integral to celebrations and rituals.
In Indian classical music, Sangeetha is divided into two main categories: Hindustani and Carnatic. Hindustani music is prevalent in northern India, while Carnatic music is more common in the southern regions. Both styles have unique characteristics, but they share a foundation in ragas (melodic frameworks) and talas (rhythmic cycles).
