The Turning Point in Indian Music Pt. Vishnu Narayan Bhatkhande Krishna Vijay, Professor Department of Music, Kumaun University, Nainital, Uttarakhand Abstract Pt. Vishnu Narayan Bhatkhande's entry into the field of music brought a turning point in Indian Classical Music. He devoted himself full-heartedly to the cause of uplifting the status of music in the society and brought it to the respectable families and secured social justice for music. This paper describes his contribution to the revival and growth of classical Indian music. He worked on the technical revival of music and gave simple and convincing explanations and interpretations to clear the confusion among musicians and musicologists of that time. He introduced ‘thaat’ system and ‘notation’ system for Northern Indian Classical Music which helped students and enthusiasts to understand music easily. He collected musical compositions from various ‘ustads’ and put them into notation in 7 volumes, by which students of music are still being benefitted. Any discussion in music would be incomplete without referring to Bhatkhande's work. Top Keywords Indian classical music, Northern Indian classical music, Social justice, ‘thaat’ system and ‘Notation’ system. Top | |
