While focusing on the Nathdwara school of pakhāvaj, the author, joins ethnographic, historical, religious and iconographic perspectives, to argue a multifaceted interpretation of the role and function of the pakhāvaj in royal courts, temples and contemporary stages; furthermore he offers the first analysis of the visual and narrative contents of its repertoire"--
