Presents an account of the development of modern national culture in India using classical music as a case study. This book demonstrates how the emergence of an "Indian" cultural tradition reflected colonial and exclusionary practices. It shows how a nation's imaginings - from politics to culture - reflect rather than transform societal divisions.
