When I have gone to India I oftentimes have the opportunity to see a classical music concert. When I was in Adelaide I got interested in classical singing as I accompanied Manik Panvelliwallah a classical singer in many concerts in the community there.
Singing is a meditative tradition as music and ragas in Indian music are connected to the Gods and devotion.
Here is a link which will illustrate the basics of this ancient tradition.

Ramakant Gundecha is one half of the Gundecha Brothers, the foremost practitioners of dhrupad, an ancient form of Indian vocal music. After I attended a weeklong workshop with the brothers, Ramakant was kind enough to sit down with me for a short conversation about the origins of dhrupad, their lineage, singing as meditation, how Westerners and non-musicians can benefit from practicing dhrupad, and the mystical meaning of the syllable AH.
A few of my all time favourites are Pandit Jasraj, Mallikarjun Mansur, Bhimsen Joshi, Koishori Amonkar, Bade Gulam Ali Khan,
