		Later periods saw further evolution in music theory and the purana period was characterized by numerous references to singing, musicians and musical instruments.
		Music and dance flourished during this period, and the Hindu musician Tansen is still well-remembered.

	Carnatic Music Origin & Development
		In the south, it is held that the notes figuring in Tyagaraja's "nada tanumanijam" kriti in the raga chittaranjani, as traditionally sung, represent the notes of the sama gana.

	Bimodalism -- A New School of Harmony in Music \| Enrique Ubieta (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Bitonality (or polytonality) is a contrapuntal style of writing music, where each of two or more diatonic melodies is written in a different tonality, so that all may sound simultaneously.
		As for serial form, however, one may argue that its perception is more visual than aural: When one reads a serial music score, the perception of its form is clear to the eye; but when one then listens to the same score, the ear no longer perceives its form as did the eye.
		Therefore, it is unwise to separate form from tonality as serial and polytonal music have done, as there is no way to discern form, if one does not present it to the ear within a certain atmosphere of tonality.

		In the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, individual congregations are referred to as “wards.” Wards, in turn, are organized into groups called Stakes that are roughly equivalent to a Catholic diocese.
		The name Stake refers to the imagery used by Isaiah in reference to Zion, or the Kingdom of God, comparing it to a tent that is supported and fixed to the ground by stakes.
		The video moves quickly through each year displaying a flash of light on the world map as each stake is established and then leaves a tiny red dot at the location.

		'The highest musical excellence is found in his compositions which we have come to call kritis, in which he captured and effectively picturised the essence of ragas...
		The extent of the hold of his music can be gauged from the fact that his songs, though in Telugu, superseded almost everyone else's in a land where the language was not known.'
