Can someone check my grammar?

The distinction of Indian music based on their religious influenced was divided into two musical styles which are the Hindustani (North India) and Carnatic (South India). Paralleling this two Indian musical styles the Hindustani is more Moslem influence that specialize the used of improvisatory style that they incorporate in their musical instruments such as Sitar, Sarod, and Tabla. The Carnatic music is basically Hindu influenced that emphasize more on the clical approach which is essentially composed music for both vocal and instrumental. Carnatic music in the other hand is primarily vocal. Indeed, even the instrumental music of South India consist primarily a transcription of vocal compositions. The execution of these two musical styles in India also governs certain rules in performing and composing music. These rules are the Raga (modes or melodic formula), Tala (Rhythmic framework), Shruti (intervals used as an ornaments), and Rasa (a mode or sentiment).
