Quine Salon: What makes Indian classical music special?

​Explore how improvisation shapes Indian classical music, allowing musicians to infuse personal creativity into traditional forms. Learn about the subtle yet powerful ornamentation techniques that define each artist's unique style and emotional expression.

​Talk by Harshit Khurana, a PhD candidate in robotics at EPFL. He grew up learning Indian Classical music as a kid and enjoys the constrained creativity this music taps into. The technicality of art forms, especially in music and dancing, is what he considers as one of the primary factors involved in improvisation.
