The book studies the evolution of the ancient drum má¹›daá¹…ga into the pakhÄvaj, crossing more than 2,000 years of history. While focusing on the Nathdwara school of pakhÄvaj, the author joins ethnographic, historical, religious and iconographic perspectives to argue a multifaceted interpretation of the role and function of the pakhÄvaj in royal courts, temples and contemporary stages. Furthermore, he offers the first analysis of the visual and narrative contents of its repertoire.
