Skanda Publications was born about 24 years back with the aim of creating awareness and interest in the various classical, folk and traditional performing art forms of the country, through user-friendly books and related materials like cards, calendars, brochures etc, and also live performances, lecture-demonstrations and workshops.
The Melakartha scheme brings in duality to art. While it’s a highly mathematical and scientific structure, no two ragas are the same, however close they are structurally. This book, covering Ragas 37 to 72, is the second of a two-part series and celebrates this innate individuality of each raga.
