Indian Classical Music
The post about the Gregorian Chant reminded me at this banquet I bartended at. The events where mainly for Hindu clients. The music that was playing at the party is hypothesizing just like a Gregorian chant. As I looked deeper down into the music, the songs our holy scriptures in their culture. The Vedas are a collection of holy scriptures and hymns. The vocal structure is completely complex. The Samagana is specifically singing hymns to create the Samaveda . Its represents the philosophy and science of uniting thought, sound and music. Udgatar priests usually sing these hymns. So this reminded me of the Gregorian chant.
