Abstract

This abstract highlights my passion for music in genres such as Hindustani classical, Sufi, rock, and pop. They have been exposed to diverse musical influences from an early age and pursued music alongside their studies in computer engineering. The proposed culminating experience (CE) aims to create a unique style by blending Hindustani classical music and Sufi with rock and pop elements. The goal is to bridge the gap between listeners of Hindustani classical and contemporary genres while maintaining the essence of their roots. My plans are to study the genres' parameters, research audience preferences, and orchestrate songs accordingly for a successful release. The methodology involves action-based, performance-based, and musicological research to fuse different genres and develop a fresh style. I will explore Ragas and Western melodic analysis, rework previous compositions, and perform them to establish their creative approach. The timeline includes building a team, acquiring resources, and executing the project. The abstract justifies the project by emphasizing the importance of understanding the common elements between Hindustani classical and Western music for a successful fusion. My aim is to change people's perspectives on Hindustani classical and Sufi music, aiming for global appreciation. The proposed execution includes creating a new song, "Lost and Found," incorporating jazz scales, rock elements, and instruments. In summary, this abstract provides an overview of my background, objectives, methodology, and plan of action for their culminating experience project, which seeks to create a unique fusion of Hindustani classical, Sufi, rock, and pop music.
