Hindustani Classical Music is an Indian classical music tradition that took shape in northern India in the 13th and 14th centuries AD from existing religious, folk, and theatrical performance practices. The origins of Hindustani classical music, the classical music of India, can be found from some of the oldest of scriptures in humanity, the Vedas of the Hindu tradition. Thus, Hindustani classical music inherits the oldest musical tradition in humanity.Fact|date=June 2007
