How can the classical Karnatik music of South India illuminate
performers' and researchers' understanding of the art music of
seventeenth-century Italy, and specifically Monteverdi's operas?
Both art forms attach great value to the skill of vocal
ornamentation, and by exploring the singer's practice moving
between them, this Element reveals how intercultural approaches can
enable the reconsideration of the history of Western music from a
global perspective. Using methods from historical and comparative
musicology, theory and practice-based research, Charulatha Mani
analyses vocal ornamentation and technique and arrives at an
innovative approach to studying musics from the past. Musical
practice, the author argues, is an enactment of hybridity and the
artistic product of plurality. Specifically, in early modern Europe
the fluid movement of musicians from the East paved the way to a
plurality of musical cultures. This finding holds deep implications
for diversity in and decolonisation of current music performance
and education.
