A basic characteristic of the ethnic music of Assam
- descending scale which distinguishes it from the raga-based or folk music from the rest of India.
- This style is shared by ethnic music of the hill people surrounding the state of Assam, and by the music of Thailand, Myanmar and China.
- Furthermore, the tunes are structured in a pyramid, in contrast to the music of rest of India which is meend based.
Assam is a state with valleys and hills, and the home of many ethnic tribes. Just as the geography and varied people co-exist, the pulsating Bihu songs co-exist with languorous music of other forms.
