In the first part, the present collection, notwithstanding its short-comings, will be received with indulgence by those interested with the revival of Hindu music. It also provides a further collection of the views of foreign writers on Hindu music which has been placed in the second part. The first part contains extracts from almost all the eminent works on Hindu music found in the Englis language.
The similarity of the music of Egypt and Greece to that of this country has been traced and pointed out: harmony and melody have been compared; and time noticed. The varieties of song have been enumerated, and the character of each detailed. A brief account of the principal musicians has been super-added and the work concluded with a short alphabetical glossary of the most useful musical terms.
