The problem with this type of guru-disciple musical tradition is that in 2 generations the music already sounds completely different even though the instruments have stayed the same. For this reason, what we call Indian classical music begins exactly at the point when the first audio recordings came out. This froze it in time, so nobody can deviate too far from that. Unfortunately, the REAL classical music of the late medieval/early modern period is just completely lost and nobody knows what it sounded like.
