AUTHOR'S PREFACE
vii

I also desire to express my thanks to M. Fredalis of Baroda for kind permission to use the half tone block of the Sarangi player, facing p. 108.

May my small book lead many to seek further light on this most interesting part of the wonderful Heritage of India.

I would earnestly ask that readers will not fail to notify me of matters which are open to criticism, or which should be corrected in a subsequent edition.
