Ragas of Carnatic Music
This list of scales for raagas of Carnatic music is just an RTS version of the Carnatic Raga Scales page maintained by Kumaran Santhanam. Many thanks to him and his many contributors. A few brief notes: 1. The telugu alphabet in RTS (as used here): vowels: a aa|A i ee|I u oo|U e E ai o O au aM a@h consonants: k kh|K g gh|G ~m ch|c Ch|C j jh|J ~n T Th D Dh N t th d dh n p ph|P b bh|B m y r l v S sh s h L The Sanskrit alphabet does not have the E,O and L. 2. If you are looking for a particular raaga, look for it in the alphabetically arranged janya raaga index at the end of this page and then look for it under the mELakarta it is listed against. 3. The names of svaras have been indicated thus: S shaDjamam R rishabham G gaandhaaram M madhyamam P panchamam D dhaivatam N nishaadam The variations of R,G,M,D,N have been notated thus: R,D G M N 1 - Suddha 1 - Suddha 1 - Suddha 1 - Suddha 2 - chatuSruti 2 - sAdhAraNa 2 - prati 2 - kaiSika 3 - shaTSruti 3 - antara 3 - kAkali 4. The ragas marked with an asterisk(*) have unverified parent raga and/or scales. If you have concrete, documented proof as to the parent raga and/or the scale for these ragas, please write to Kumaran Santhanam. 5. For some ragas where there are conflicting ArOhaNa/avarOhaNa patterns, the source of the pattern given is indicated by a or b. a. Raganidhi by B.Subbarao b. Ragas in Carnatic Music by S.Bhagyalekshmy 6. If you are interested in the naming and ordering of the mELakarta (janaka) raagas using the kaTapaya scheme, check out the "kaTapaya scheme and its application to mELakarta raagas". 7.
