Answer to Question 1


  • Song forms are unique to dance.

  • May include a musician chanting syllables to match dancer's footwork.

  • Dancers interpret the meaning of the lyrics, which are often beautiful love poetry.



Answer to Question 2


  • Indian classical music is transmitted as an oral tradition passed down through history by memory. The music is written down only in sketchy form to nudge the memory.

  • Since this music is not written down in precise music notation by a composer, no definitive version of the music exists. Therefore, the musical renditions may become highly variable with a new and unique treatment of the song coming into existence each time the song is performed.
