Hindustani Raga-s Index: Bibliographical References on Descriptions, Compositions and Vistara-s of Hindustani Raga-s based on Selected Major Contemporary Works in Devanagari

Hindustani Raga-s Index will prove quite useful to all musicians, scholars and students of music who need to consult the main contemporary Devanagari texts on Raga-s descriptions, compositions and Vistara-s. Browsing through the many tables of contents of these works (often in several volumes or parts) in order to extract required information, is a time-consuming activity and Moutal’s book, although non-exhaustive, will be a tremendous time-saver for consultation. The present work covers 2821 bibliographical references of 665 names of Raga-s found in 33 Devanagari texts (in 79 volumes) by 22 major authors.
