Semantic Web is an intelligent incarnation and advancement in World Wide Web to store, annotate, index and retrieve information by providing knowledge representation, classification, and categorization, a common understanding among the group of people and structuring the information in machine processable format. To structure the information in machine processable semantic models Semantic Web have introduced the concept of ontology. Ontologies are most widely used in artificial intelligence, semantic web, software engineering, information retrieval, knowledge representation, knowledge sharing, knowledge integration, knowledge reuse, and so on. Music plays a vital role in human life. A vast number of musical instruments are used to produce rhythmic sounds. The rapid growth of technology enables on line music. The instruments used and the terms used to describe the concepts varies from individual groups. To support concept based knowledge representation and semantic retrieval music files music instruments knowledge should be identified and represented. This raises the need for construction of Indian music instruments ontology. This ropes semantic web with more intelligent, capable, relevant, responsive interaction and high performance retrieval system. The Indian music instrument ontology is been constructed and the paper concludes with conclusion and future work.
