I am a South East Asian female MA Music student at a university in Chennai.
My foundation in Carnatic Music however is very limited as the exposure and facilities to receive training from teachers in my home country are limited.
As I have had a steady stream of film/religuos singing performances, my interest in understanding the theory of Carnatic music grew, leading me to the university in India, in which I am studying now.
However, my learned teachers and talent scouts in India continue to advice me that my voice is suited better to Hindustani music.
My question is, can I learn both Carnatic (for MA) and Hindustani music (on the side, privately), without one genre affecting my performance in the other? How can I do this?
Thank you and best wishes.

Esteemed Professor,
The Icfai University Press is a leader in academic publishing with the largest portfolio of professional & contemporary publications in the areas of management, marketing, strategy, finance, economics, law, humanities, science & technology. Being encouraged by the response from academia & looking to the need for publishing new journals in the field of Fine Arts, the University Press has come up with a novel idea of launching “THE ICFAI UNIVERSITY JOURNAL OF MUSIC”.
Classical music, whether Indian or Western, is considered as one of the oldest forms of music in the world. It is a very complex system of music that requires much thought, both artistically & technically. The growth & development of classical music through the centuries is a testimony to the brilliance of the musicians’ caliber & strength. It is the sonic representation of a rich cultural heritage, the essence of spirituality that evolved out of the heart & brain of the pious saints & great musicians all over the world.Classical music is a broad term that usually refers to music produced in, or rooted in the traditions of Indian as well as Western culture, encompassing a broad period from roughly the 9th century to the present times. The central norms of this tradition became codified between 1200 and 1900 for both the forms of Music. This Classical form of Human Art needs to be taken to the larger audience parallel with any other scientific study. This can be achieved if one understands it in the right perspective & don’t lose it to the religion.
In this evolving scenario we wish to launch “THE ICFAI UNIVERSITY JOURNAL OF MUSIC” as a platform for the academia, music connoisseurs, music lovers & others concerned with the growth of the various forms of Music (like Classical music, folk music, Pop music, Romantic music, Jazz ) discipline to articulate their compositions, research findings, their vision about this evolving discipline, their expositions & propositions meant for bettering the new lines of research & through it disseminate the growing knowledge among the music lovers & academia. In this Journal, we wish to publish original research works, compositions, literature reviews and professional papers as well as research notes in the field of Music.
We therefore invite you to contribute articles on any issue under the discipline of Music and all related areas to make our endeavor a success. Your articles may be mailed to gunanikad@iupindia.org or info@iupindia.org. You may also share this information with your colleagues. We look forward to your contributions. A word of confirmation would be highly appreciated.
With regards,
Yours Sincerely,
G.R.K. Murty

I am looking for some authentic publications on the making of a Veena. It should cover right from selection of timber, treatments finishing to the timber, precise geometry of the Veena, fretwork lay-out and settings, and how to improve the 'Naadam'(sound quality)of Veena. Could someone please advise me the list of publications and where they are available?
My second question: Why does the classical Saraswati Veena does not have a sound hole similar to Guitar and Violin? How is the resonator(Kudam) expected to work as a resonator if it is completely covered by the plank?
