Carnatic music or Karnāṭaka Saṃgīta is a system of music commonly associated with the southern part of the Indian subcontinent with its area roughly confined to four modern states of India: Andhra Pradesh Karnataka Kerala and Tamil Nadu. It is one of two main sub-genres of Indian classical music that evolved from ancient Hindu traditions; the other sub-genre being Hindustani music which emerged as a distinct form because of Persian and Islamic influences in North India.
