**Title:** *Concepts to Compositions: Mathematical Shaping of Original Indian Classical Pieces*

<p class="abstract">

Indian music is renowned for its rich conceptual frameworks, diverse compositional forms, aesthetic depth, and inherent logical structures. Exploring how abstract concepts can serve as catalysts for musical creation presents a compelling and prospective area of research. This lecture–demonstration examines the process through which conceptual ideas evolve into innovative musical compositions and compositional forms.
44+
45+
The presentation features a selection of original compositions by the researcher, each derived from distinct conceptual foundations. The lecture will illustrate several approaches, including the translation of mathematical concepts into compositional structures, the extraction and reorganization of rhythmic patterns as the basis for new works, and the inter-transfer of conceptual ideas between different musical systems.
46+
47+
Additionally, the lecture highlights a unique and original concept conceived by the researcher’s teacher (guru), where an exclusive principle drawn from language has been transformed into a new compositional form.
48+
49+
Through analytical discussion and live musical demonstrations, the lecture aims to reveal how interdisciplinary and conceptual thinking can expand the creative and structural possibilities within Indian music.

In this talk I will present the work by the Music and Sound Cultures Research Group in recording and digitally encoding music from the Arabian Gulf. This music is interestingly rich in influences that span from East Africa to South India, yet it is not well known outside this region. I will describe the challenges posed to researchers interested in researching this music, and discuss the transdisciplinary methodologies we are developing in order to make this music discoverable and analyzable in the digital domain.
