The present book 'Karnataka Sangita Sastra' was originally written in Tamil and so great was Iyer's enthusiasm that he wrote the entire book of 160 pages in his own handwriting and got it printed by the offset process. The work covers the entire gamut of musical theory from a general article on Indian music to a detailed description of the various technical aspects of Carnatic music like Grama, Srutis, Tala, Raga lakshanas, the 72 Melakartas and prominent composers who made their invaluable contribution to our music.
