What is Vedic Music: Origins and Influence about?
Indian music developed from various divine and scholarly sources over time. During pre-Vedic times, music was believed to be created by gods playing instruments. The Vedic period saw the systematic development of music through hymns in texts like the Rig Veda and Sama Veda. The Sama Veda in particular was focused on group singing called samaganas, which developed rhythmic aspects of music. Scales evolved from three notes to five notes during this period, laying the foundations for classical Indian music.
