Introduction Music has always been regarded as one of the finest expressions of human emotions. It is used for celebrations as well as a symbol of mourning or for loss. Almost all the civilizations have their own form of music which can claim to have roots deep in the culture and heritage of the land. Thus, it is hardly surprising that a civilization whose origin dates back to as early as the culture of Karnataka does will also be one of the richest store houses of one of the most frequently used forms of cultural expression… music. Karnataka is generally regarded to be the place of origin of Carnatic Music, one of the most acclaimed expressions of classical music in the world.
Carnatic Music The word Carnatic was used to describe the genre of music which has its origin in the Carnatic region of India.
