Original Wikitext content:
Indian music is one of the important microtonal music traditions (along with the [[Arabic, Turkish, Persian|Middle Eastern]] family of traditions). The unit of measurement in the Indian system is the **shruti** (sometimes spelled šruti, sruti or shruthi), which corresponds roughly to a quarter-tone. There are 22 shrutis per octave, 13 per fifth and 9 per fourth. A size of 4 shruti for the major whole tone follows from that. The step sizes of the heptatonic scales ([[shadja grama]], [[madhyama grama]]) are given as sequences of 4, 3, and 2 shruti. There is no single standardized non-ambiguous definition of the exact sizes of all shruti intervals. An explanation about the shruti system and one traditional derivation of the 22 shrutis is available [[@http://www.carnaticcorner.com/articles/22_srutis.htm|here]]. Another example of a compilation of the shrutis, with explicit values of the intervals, can be found [[A shruti list|here]]. The system has been approximated by [[22edo]], though the traditional tuning system is unequal. Some derivations in the light of modern temperament theory: [[Magic22 as srutis|Magic22 and Shrutar22 as srutis]] ==Other links== [[http://tonalsoft.com/monzo/indian/indian.htm|Article on indian tuning in Joe Monzo's tuning encyclopedia]] [[http://homepage.mac.com/patrickmoutal/macmoutal/rag.html|Patrick Moutal's Indian Music Page]] [[http://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/%7Emrahaim/|Hindustani Music Resources]] - downloads and links, compiled by Matt Rahaim http://www.musicresearch.in - an indian music research portal
