"Contribution of Pandit Bhagwat Sharan Sharma in the classical and literary field of music"

Abstract

            A unique and sacred art like music is like a vast and deep ocean. This art did not disintegrate despite centuries of slavery due to its superiority, maturity, depth and dedication of devoted artists. Indian musical practice has broken the shackles of caste and religion. Therefore, music has been the best and highest strong link of cultural unity of our country. The everlasting joy that a human being gets from music cannot be obtained from any other art.

            The tradition of music is very ancient in India. Early music, like language, was a means of everyday human expression, because in this way it made up for the lack of language. Gradually, artistry increased in it. Music is the best art among the fourteen sciences and sixty-four arts described in our scriptures.
