Two decades and the fourth book

Sumana Ramanan, the music columnist for the Mumbai Mirror thought music critics were a dying breed, and I was something of an anomaly in the business-dominated city of Bombay. I am not sure it was a dinosaur she was talking to. But, I am grateful that she found my two decades in musicology, and the release of my fourth book news-worthy.

"Khayal Vocalism: Continuity within Change"

When my work on Khayal vocalism was published (2009), it did not receive the promotional support it probably deserved.

In the hope that work like mine is not subject to accelerated obsolescence, I am submitting it again for the consideration of those who may have missed it earlier.
