Nepali
classical music has a history since the time of King Mana Deva (567BS/
510 AD). The classical music was able to develop, improve and grow
during the Kirat Period, Lichchavi Period, Malla Period and Shah Period
as well as the Rana Period. After Rana rulers King Mahendra and Birendra
played a role to popularise classical music through Radio and Durbar
Concerts. Today many classical musicians live with music here as their
profession. Many bands namely Sursudha, Sukarma, Trikaal, Sampada ,
Kutumba are famous bands in Nepal. Classical music organizations such as
Kalanidhi, Narayan Music Academy, Kirateswor, Kapan Sangit Sarowar,
Yalamaya, Ram Mandir and Atul Memorial Gurukul have been organising
regular public shows for the conservation of eastern classical music.
Atul Memorial Gurukul is the first classical music Gurukul in Nepal. -
