Although Indian music is now divided into the two major classes of Hindusthani (Northern Indian) and Karnatak or Carnatic (Southern Indian), the origins and fundamental concepts of both thes types of music are the same. This progression of sound patterns along time is the most significant contributor to the tune and rhythm of the presentation, and hence to the melody. The most important point to note is that movements in Indian classical music are on a one-noteat-a-time basis. Indian music is melodic in nature, as opposed to Western music which is harmonic. It has its roots in diverse areas such as the ancient religious vedic hymns, tribal chants, devotional temple music, and folk music. Indian classical music is one of the oldest forms of music in the world.
