Indian Classical

Indian Classical music can trace its origins back over 2,000 years, birthed in the temples of India when someone presumably decided that chanting prayers could do with a bit more pizzazz. It's characterised by intricate melodies, raga improvisation, and the uncanny ability to make a sitar sound as if it has deep philosophical secrets to share. Notably, it remains a cultural treasure for millions, proving that music can indeed be both an art form and a deep, spiritual experience – or a perfect excuse for a bit of contemplative sitting on the floor in a lovely outfit.
