The Assamese music’s basic characteristic is its descending scale which makes it different from the raga-based or folk music from the rest of India. The indigenous music of Assam includes Bihu songs, Bodo, Karbi and Mising songs that are all structured and sung to the Pentatonic scale quite similar to the traditional music of China, indicating a strong influence of Chinese music on Assamese culture. The music of Assam can be broadly divided into Regional folk music, Ethnic folk music, Bihu songs, Allied styles, Bhakti music and Modern music.
