This book sheds light on the musical brilliance of diverse nations and unveils the unique characteristics of a nation's popular music. The "Universal History of Music" draws from various sources and is enriched with original insights into Hindu music. The inclusion of songs from different cultures is not merely a coincidence; it stems from the profound connection between Music and Poetry, both overseen by the deity Sarasvati in Sanskrit tradition. This inclusion serves not only to showcase the intertwining of these art forms but also to facilitate a deeper understanding of a nation's essence, as its songs and music are authentic expressions of its soul. While some specifics of Hindu music are presented in the Appendix.

Raja Sir Sourindra Mohun Tagore (1840-1914) was a prominent Bengali musicologist from an influential family in Bengal. He excelled in both Indian and Western music theory, founding the Bengal Music School and the Bengal Academy of Music. He played a pivotal role in adapting "God Save the Queen" into Indian musical styles and supported British rule in India. Tagore also made significant contributions to the study of Indian music, received honorary degrees, and initiated musical exchanges with Japan. He was honored with knighthood and various international recognitions.
