Overview:
Indian music has come a long way since its first records at around 200-400 BC. Bharatha Muni, a
musicologist, wrote down a basic music theory of that time called Natya.
Upon arrival of the Mughals, several Hindu kings escaped to the south. Territories of the Mughals were called
Hindustan and territories by Hindu kings were called Carnatic. This is why the two branches of Indian music are
called Hindustani and Carnatic.
Lesson Proper
Carnatic Music
Pundara Dasa is credited as the founder of Carnatic Music. He devised teaching methods and composed music
as well. His most important contribution is the codifying of teaching elements of music into graded steps.
Carnatic Music is based primarily on ragas(melodic scale) and talas(rhythmic cycle). There are seven talas and
72 basic ragas. All other ragas music---tyagaraja, Muthuswami Dikshitar, and Shyama Shastri---created a lot of
Krithis(composition) that have influenced many musicians up to this day.
Carnatic music is highly devotional and spiritual. Its aim is always to find Brahman or GOD. In Hindu
teachings, one of the easiest ways to reach God is through music. Even the Hindu God each have their own musical
instrument.
Musical Analysis
With regards to tuning, all Indian music are tuned in just a temperament as opposed to an equal temperament
in western music. There are 22 notes in one octave on the Indian scale.
The presence of gamaka or microtones is also related to the first characteristics of having more than 12 notes
per octave. Indian music occurs at different frequencies because of the sliding aesthetic.
Notes are called Swara, and there are 7 of it: sa, ri, ga, ma, pa, dha, and mi, which are based of the real names
of Swaras wgich are Shadjam, Rishabham, GAndharam, PAnchamam, Dhaivatham, and Nishadham.
Raga is the subset of notes chosen from the 22 notes, plus all the sliding and microtones assosiated with the
seven notes.
Tala is the rhythmic cycle of carnatic music. These rhythmic cycles are based on the phrasing of words on the
melody.

Located at the center of important ancient trade routes, the Arabian people were enriched by many
different civilizations. As early as 3,000 BC, Arabian merchants were part of a far-reaching trade network that
extended to south Asia, the Mediterranean and Egypt. They served as a vital link between India and the Far
East on one side, and Byzantium and the Mediterranean lands on the other. Saudi Arabia’s Islamic heritage is
the bedrock of it’s art and culture. Although society in general remains deeply religious and conservative.
Architecture
The first mosque of Islam was the house of the Islamic prophet Mohammed in Medina. When it was
first built by prophets Muhammad and his companions, it was made of simple blocks. However, as time passes
and different Muslim empires and rulers were honored to role Medina, the mosque has been subjected to
different constructions. The last one of them is that done by the Saudi different kings. The current construction
is the prototype of all later sacred architecture of Islam. The current design of the mosque pays great attention
to all details. Apparently and most importantly, the floor and carpet that are touched in prayer with the
head. There are different regional styles of architecture in Saudi Arabia, and they are divided into different
styles. In the Najd region, most buildings are made of mud-brick covered by mud-plaster. In the Hijaz region,
most buildings are made of coral rag and wood, with roofs made of palm thatch and wooden beams. There are
many Ottoman influences on the architecture in this region.

A communicable disease is one that is spread from one person to another through a variety of ways that
include: contact with blood and bodily fluids; breathing in an airborne virus; or by being bitten by an
insect.Reporting of cases of communicable disease is important in the planning and evaluation of disease
prevention and control programs, in the assurance of appropriate medical therapy, and in the detection of
common-source outbreaks. California law mandates healthcare providers and laboratories to report over 80
