Issue Date: 1988
Publisher: Sangeet Natak Akademi, New Delhi
Description: This paper borrowed many concepts and categories of understanding ourselves and our culture from the West.

One pair of categories in common use among us today is 'folk' and 'classical', used for classifying art forms including music.
