What are the different types of Spiritual Yoga Music?
Indian classical music is known as raga, which translates from the Sanskrit into color or mood. Raga is a series of five or more musical notes upon which a melody is composed. In the Indian musical tradition, ragas are associated with different times of the day, or with seasons. Often, the tabla, a popular Indian percussion instrument, is used in the classical, popular and Spiritual Yoga Music of India. A pair of hand drums of contrasting sizes and timbres, tabla is derived from an Arabic word, tabl, which simply means drum. One of the oldest instruments associated with Indian classical music is the sitar, which dates back to the 13th century. This plucked, stringed instrument derives its resonance from sympathetic strings, a long hollow neck and a gourd-resonating chamber. A member of the lute family, the sitar was popularized in the western world through the work of Pandit Ravi Shankar, particularly after Beatle, George Harrison took lessons from Shankar and played sitar in songs inc
