REVIEW

Classical Indian music is explored in Discovering the Music of India. This videotape is useful mainly for late elementary to high school music teachers because the focus is on the elements of the music itself, such as tone, rhythmic patterns, augmentation, and the sound of different instruments, rather than its socio-historical development. Discovering also distinguishes northern and southern musical traditions and demonstrates various dance techniques.
