Nice work sir, the comparison between western music scales and carnatic music ragas was helpful in understanding the concept much easier..
Excellent explanation. The first time I understood
Raghavan, our Alumni has done a fabulous job!
amazingly well explained... kudos
Thank you for these set of lessons. The instructor is brilliantly lucid and articulate. These videos (this one in particular) have made the world of ragas less obscure to a layperson like myself who had trouble understanding Carnatic music using Western music theory.
Glad you like them!
Very well explained. Thank you.
Very well explained ... thanks !!
Explanation of Melakartha - 72 ragas and Shankarabharanam - 29 Ragas. Shiva Venkatamakhin, I think that's the name of the historian who clarified the full 72 ragas into a teachable format. It's basically mathematics, only so many combinations possible form a 12 note octave scale, producing the 72 ragas. In other countries like turkey they have 16 note octaves giving you even further possibilities, and some of the notes are movable depending on water part of the county your playing in. Really nice that way this guy relates the indian rags to western scale formats. Makes it much easier for a western train musician to grasp the relationships. After that this is just the mathematics of the possibilities. He points out how some of the possibilities are not very pleasing to the ear, so they are not popular, yet... But as the normal global music listeners begin to widen they mids and accept more exotic scale forms then you will start to see all the rages, even the harsh ones, start to make their way into popular music. There are no wrong notes, as ling as you introduce them in the right context.
Amazing..
👌👏👏👏
teach us about time signature it confusing. how approach a song in time signature point of view?
The melakarta raagas 72 aside, in general,
can two raagas (may be janya) have identical notes but differ only in gamakka/ornamentation?
Not entirely sure on this
Gaanamurte is a kriti in Ragam Ganamurthi..not kanakangi.
Maya moula goula raga is equivalent to which scale? Anyone knows?
I thing a bebop major scale with a flattened 2nd.
