According to ancient theory, after hearing and distinguishing between the different sounds that emanated from bamboo reed when air passes through its hollows, man designed the first flute. Ancient treatises describe the connection of the origin of swaras (the notes of Indian music) to the sounds of animals and birds, and man’s keen sense of observation and perception in trying to simulate these sounds. Like all art forms in Indian culture, Carnatic music is believed to have a divine origin, from the Devas and Devis, but it is also generally accepted that the natural origins of music were an important factor in its development.
