Part of this exercise included listening to (and watching) a video of Ravi Shankar and his daughter perform a selection of Indian music played on a stringed instrument called a sitar. If you, or someone else, have played guitar for many years and are proficient using this instrument, what should be expected if the attempt were made to perform the same Indian music on a guitar?
A player will only need to learn one scale of Indian music.
There are only a few more notes that need to be learned to play Indian music.
There are the same number of notes for Indian music as Western music.
