The only Telegu work that I have seen which is of any interest is a tract called “Sangíta Kaliânidhi,” on the vina, with diagrams of the fingerboard. There is a Guzerathi work entitled “The Musical Instructor,” by N. D. Apyakhtiar, Bombay, 1870. This work contains a certain amount of theory apparently extracted from the Sangíta Ratnâkera, and a number of coloured illustrations which, though poor, are not without interest. It contains also a large number of Guzerathi songs. - [Previous: c12.92](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.day-1891.c12.92) - [Next: c12.94](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.day-1891.c12.94) - [Up: c12](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.day-1891.c12) ## Cites (1) - [Saṅgītaratnākara](https://indike.org/pramana/in.art.sangita.sangraha.ratnakara.sangitaratnakara) — Śārṅgadeva, Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.day-1891.c12.93](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.day-1891.c12.93) · Pramāṇa
