Re: [Assam] Musical Instruments
Dear Wahed da, A little bit alongwith some photographs about Satriya Dance could be found in the following links : http://assam.nic.in/cms/pictures.htm#The%20Sattriya%20Dances%20of%20Assam http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sattriya_dance Hope these will be useful to you. I will post you more information about Satriya as and when I find something new.

You are right. When I first published the Indiawijzer (in Dutch) in 1992 it was a small book of 142 pages. I had difficulties obtaining information from India especially from Assam . As I am a layman trying to be jack of all trades, I did not want to put something on paper without going through some published materials. Almost all the artciles covering business, yoga, culture, dance, philosphy etc. published in the Indiawijzer is written by me. As I could not obtain the necessary information at that time it was not included. The second edition of Indiawijzer was published in 1999. It is a book of 416 pages. During this publication also I had difficultiy in obtaining information. Another problem was the time. The Dutch law demands that before you publish you have to take permission. To give you an idea I wrote more than 3.000 letters to collect information and get permission. With Internet it is now easier to get information. But still you need permission. The Indiawijzer is the work of one person from collecting information, web-design, programming , maintenance everything is done by me. If needed it is updated almost daily (atleast the Cultural Agenda of Indian programmes in the Netherlands ). At present the website has more than 3.000 webpages and still have to update/add more than 1000 pages. In the coming months I hope to update the chapter on Indian Dance and Music. It is not only the chapter on dance but also chapters on musical instruments, types of vocal music, new artists active in the netherlands etc. have to be included. Thanks for your suggestions.

I found the list of Indian Classical Dance is not an exhaustive one. Some of the very important classical dance like Manipuri, Kuchipudi,Kathakali is found missing. But missing of our own 'Satriya Dance' from the list is found to be most surprisng as it was recognised only few years back(means it is still very fresh in our minds) after much efforts from all the corners.

Thank you for sending the informative site on musical instruments from India. I am looking for which ones of these were played alongwith the songs in hindi movies, in Guru, for example.

Hello! You can check out this site: www.binaswar.com It's an instrument manufacturer's website, but the instruments are pictured according to family (strings, wind instruments, etc.) and there are audio samples so you can look at the picture and hear the sound of the instrument at the same time!
