from a much older Hindustani instrument called the veena. Influenced by
the Persian lute called the setar, it was modified and renamed in the 16th
century by musicians in the Mughal court. By the 18th century the sitar
had become a mainstay of Indian classical music.

Introduced to the west in the 1950s by RAVI SHANKAR and others, and
briefly popularized by the BEATLES in the 1960s, in the 1970s the sitar
encountered something completely new: the electronic synthesizer.

Electronic instruments and studio techniques opened up and modernized
the_sound_of Indian music; while Indian classical music inspired western
musicians to try a completely different system of musical creation, based
on drones, microtonal scales, and improvisation on pre-composed melodic
ragas and rhythmic talas.

It's hard to say whether the Western or Indian system dominated the
encounter; today we enjoy a healthy cross-fertilization of digital technology
with Indian musical instruments and traditions. I'm STEPHEN HILL and on
this transmission of Hearts of Space, another report from the intersection of
Indian music and electronics, on a program called INDO-TRONICA 2.
