Thumri in Historical and Stylistic Perspectives
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This scholarly volume is the first extended European-language study of thumri, the most important and popular semi-classical genre of North Indian music. Synthesizing historical and musicological analysis with an approach rooted in cultural materialism, Peter Manual provides a rigorous, detailed, and yet readable look at this significant musical style. Manuel subjects thurmi to a detailed stylistic analysis, and, drawing on his own training as a sitarist, discusses at length the genre's development as an important instrumental style.
