Plz pin this comment & refer this in her future video
Plz listen to the Indian God Md rafi ❤️❤️❤️the legend
React to 'Kanada raja pandharicha Mahesh Kale Sur nava dyas nava' 🔥
Before watching the video, i request you to kindly react to Anuja Kamat speech in TED X India.🙏🙏
Chalan means "walk"... Just take a few classes from anuja... :D we'd love to see it
For your information
Komal (soft) = flat notes
Tivra (sharp)= sharp notes
Shuddha (pure) = natural notes
chalan: gait
Chalan: is a way of saying how the raag walks… what is the typical way notes follow each other, where they rest, where they are emphasized
Chalan: gait
Chanel: perfume brand
:-P
Hei why don't you kind of interview her to know more about Indian classical songs
That would be great. I'll see if I can get in touch with her
@@HofTheStage The song she sang, you got to give your reaction on it. It's one of my favorite song, It's name is :- Jhanak Jhanak tori baaje payaliya.
@@HofTheStage that will be interesting . At least to understand a proper basics of indian music, so you will correlate your existing knowledge of western singing with indian type, and also will use proper terms. If you find also another good teacher and record few lessons - that will be also very entertaining :)
@@HofTheStage Actually the Pentatonic Scale you talked about would probably be the Raag Bhupali or what she called Raag "Bhoop" in your previous video featuring her.
Raag Bihag is 5 in ups and 7 in downs.
Raag Bihag : Aroga : C-E-F-G-B-C'
Abarohan : C'-B-A-G-F-E-D-C
Aroga literally means Going upwards, ascending.
And Abaroha or Abarohan means Coming down, descending.
Actually she is still busy researching more on Hindustani classical music as mentioned in her channel
Shuddha means pure/ clean. But shuddhata means purity.🙏👍
In music, shuddha or pure notes are the major scale notes
It's the hindi meaning but when it comes to classic music sudha means natural
Yes and komal notes means variant.
@@SyedSaifAbbasNaqvi Komal means soft
Shuddha in music doesn't mean pure. Just the natural major notes. Komal means flat. Teevra means sharp.
Vocabulary to remember;
Komal:soft pitch
Suddha= normal pitch
Madra= low pitch
Teevra= high pitch..
Chalan= pattern or movement
Gamakas= bridge(connecting notes/scales)
Shringaar-Raag= Cosmetic Raag.
Sonih Raag= Complaint Raag.
Bhairav-Raag= Wiseman/Devotee Raag.
(Timeline-6am/8am)
Do you learn Indian classical?
Its Shringaar Ras not Shringaar Raag. Shringaar Ras is style of poetry where context is love between actor and actress. It is of two kind Sanyog Shringaar (joyful) and viyog Shringaar (sad)
a Chalan is an extensive series of note patterns which summarises the development of a particular raga. It discloses the basic grammar of the raga and provides a treatment and melodic context of each tone. Chalan is the movement of a raga or development of a raga
Raag Bihag is not a major pentatonic scale like "C D E G A" . it uses five notes but it's like "B C E F G" (where C = the root note, or 'saa') . F sharp is used occasionally while descending from G.
I felt what he played thinking bihag matched with rag bhup more. It was like sa re ga pa dha sa.
@@nidhichoudhury5617 no, he played raag durga . He just played the Black keys, he told that too in that . He didn't used the notes ga , instead of that he played the note (ma) , whose use is against the rules of representing raag bhup
Pentatonic would be like Raag Bhupali right ?
@@priyanshu3549 Ya But Durga has different flavour to it. The tones doesn't match. It sounded close to Bhupali, I think.
@@prasanna3378 no, pentatonic scale is raag durga ,whose notes are :- sa re ma pa dha så (all Black keys only ) . At 13:04 he had also mentioned that he have just played the Black keys . But he didn't played the note 'ga' and have used "ma" :- whose use is against the rule of presenting raag bhoopali . So it's not raag bhoopali .
The base note in the background or the background music is actually called Shruti..so based on your voice range you can choose the respective Shruti, for example I can't sing high notes really high cause my vocal cords don't support it, so in this case we choose a lower Shruti and then singing these higher notes becomes easier. So how High or low you can go can change with Shruti.
Shuddha means the regular note in a mode/scale. "Komal" means "Flattened" and "Teevra" means "Sharpened" notes.
If you consider A as the Shuddha note, then Komal A should be A-(flat) and Teevra A should be A+(sharp). Hope that makes sense.
The last one is like you are sad but you express that sadness with a smile on your voice , like you recognise your miseries and downfall but you are unbothered , so it's sad but with a smile
How he says this raag feels like giving up on life and that's exactly what it was...
Man..your reactions to her videos is God sent..Beautiful reaction..
Bravo!!
"Ras" (lit.=Juice) meaning the emotional essence. There are 9 basic emotions as percieved by the human mind, all emotions are but a combination of these rasas.
Ras = essence
The word "chalan" literally means movement. So "chalan of a raag" means the movement of the raag, how the raag moves through the notes. "Thaat" is kind of like a baseline and raags are built up on that baseline composed of some notes. Raags belongs to same Thaats have similarities. I hope that will help you understand raags a bit better.
Loved it. Last Raag Bhairavi is very peaceful raag. It is also used in meditation
The major pentatonic scale that you played..CDEGA is called raag Bhoop. Bihag does NOT use the same notes. Raag Bihag is in fact octatonic and uses natural F for ascending notes and F sharp for descending notes. And chalan literally means walk or movement. It is like a key phrase to identify the raag. The key phrase for Bihag in C scale would be E F G B A G F# E, E F E C
I thought it sounded like bhoop but wasn't sure.
The pentatonic scale that you played reminded my EXACTLY of the South Indian classical Carnatic ragam: Mohanam!! Listen to it! It sounds exactly like the scale you played. I was so excited I learned something new
The drone instrument that maintains the pitch is ‘Tanpura’! The Sa or the C is not constant! Depending on the singer the Sa is a floating Sa that is set on the Tanpura!
Her video on "Thaat" is Amazing.
She specially made Two Videos - One in *English* , and another in *Hindi* . She's a flawless Teacher.
The oscillation she mentioned can be compared to the micro notes which are more identifiable in case of the string instruments when you slide your fingers from one note to another one with a time lag.
I and people like me love watching these kind of videos because as Indians we hear a lot about Raags but we don't know what or how to interpret it. Anuja does it for us. And seeing you, who is like us trying to understand gives me a friendly feeling. It's like when your friends studies a difficult subject for a exam and explains it to us.
suddha swar = true notes/major notes
teevra/tivra swar = minor notes
chalan = appearance/note patterns of a raag
13:15 u got it somewhat right, but not everything right.... exactly all the black keys u played in your piano makes the raag "maalkosh" in our classical music.... when u played it, I instantly started singing raag maalkosh and some songs made up of that raag ❤️
and 14:08 all the notes u played make raag "bhupali"...its a beautiful raag & i first started learning when i was 10 and its been 20 yrs. now and it never got old! ❣️
I really appreciate your effort in learning classical music... It really takes many years of deep learning to achieve something in Indian classical music.. If u r so much interested.. I recommend u to learn Indian music from the root.. I guarantee u if u become thorough with Indian classical music.. U can sing any type of music in this world.. That is the power that Indian music holds..
Sa re ga ma pa dha ni = do re me fa so la ti respectively
That instrument playing in the background is called tanpura
Indian music is all about Mastering and Playing with the notes😍
Man you are really making an effort to understand this... Claps for you... It is too much to grasp even for an Indian..
Bhai, your display name ... made me chuckle uncontrollably 😂😂😂
Quite interesting. Thank you for a different content video. 🎵❤️🎵
The pentatonic scale you played at 14:07 is known as Raga Bhoop in Hindustani Classical music. It is one of the first ragas taught to students. The equivalent of Raga Bhoop in Carnatic Classical is Raga Mohanam.
What is the difference between Raag Bhoop , Bhoopali and Deshkar? Thank you
@@ashutoshramkumar5270 I think bhoop n bhoopali are same
@@neelchatterjee774 thank you very much 👍👍. Just have a doubt about Deshkar
@@ashutoshramkumar5270 Raag Bhoop and Bhoopali are same but Deshkar have similar notes with Bhoop but Chalan is different.. Deshkar is uttrang prakriti raag like Dha is Vadi swar but Bhoop is purvang prakriti raag which have Ga and Dha,(Mandra) as Vadi Samvadi swar
@@hrusikeshpanigrahi9173 Very Much appreciated. Thank you very much 👍👍. Am a huge Rasika of both Carnatic and Hindustani styles of music and trying to find the common grounds between them
Chalan means move/movement in Indian languages. (I'm not a musician)
Hi man, your reactions are so genuine and you carefully express indian emotions as well meanwhile making your audience understand music on a global level.. Keep this good work up. Love from india
Really appreciate the effort you are putting in understanding the technicalities of Indian classical music. Just for your reference :-
Suddha of any note - Pure Note (e.g. - C, D, E, F, G, A, B,C)
Tivra of any note - Sharp of a musical note (e.g. C#, D#, F#, G#, A#)
Komal of any note - Flat of a musical note (e.g. (A b, Bb, Db, Eb, Gb))
You have perceived it in the right sense H of the stage 👍🏼👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 every hindustani raag has it very own distinct unique flavour - there are more than 600 raags if I remember correctly
Loved your explanations! I am learning too with you
You are right about one thing. Bihaag is a slide-dominated raag. Sohni on the other hand plays in higher register.
Komal= Soft
Chalan= Walk (Speed)
Shuddha= Pure
Teevra= Sharp
Plz pin this comment & refer this in her future video
Chalan (literally) means character of somebody. So in simple term chalan is a sample phrase prescribed for a raag. When you listen to chalan you can feel the real character of raag. Unless you use chalan in composition in right manner you cannot get character of raag in your composition.
My way of looking at it. Apologies if it's not very accurate.
@@yndesai ........we have often heard the phrase Chaal Chalan.....so while chaal would refer to the walk, chalan would refer to how we should conduct ourselves ! So while you are right , Mayur is not wrong either ! Chaal is the outer personification of the inner moral conduct ! I think that would be the literal meaning . So in any given raag, chalan would be how certain notations , phrases are used to characterize a certain raag, making it unique in itself.
@@smitasharma6072 I am not saying anyone is wrong or right. I added one more Point of view. As it helps understand things at different levels. Someone who is non Indian: Walk and Speed would be interpreted more as Tempo.
@@smitasharma6072 can't we say chalan is 'manner' or how to go about it, how it's done.
Komal = Flat
i like your reactions! would love to see more such videos!
'Shringar Ras' means a Mood represents Love,Affection.
SHUDDH = Pure
KOMAL= Soft (half note lower)
TEEVRA= Intense (half note higher)
And there are '10 Thaats' in Hindustani Classical Music.
And '72 Thaats(Melkarta ragas) in Carnatic Music.
And only Indian Music has these two types of Classical Music forms in the world........
I am proud of my India,our Music and Rich Culture.🙏🙏
Shuddha(natural) notes = notes from the major scale. (the notss in major scale are considered as shuddha notes in indian classical music)
Komal(flat) notes = Flatted notes(b)
Tivra(sharp) notes =Sharped notes(#)
Thaat = a set of notes from which the raags are created. (there are 10 thaats)
Raag vihaag = major scale along with #4th as well. (do re mi fa #fa so la ti ) with some rules.
Beautiful analysis...you surely know how to communicate...you are really good at analytical skills 👌 keep going 👍
I really amazed by your affords to understand the extreme complexity of Indian Classical Music.
Miya tansen's guru was Swamy haridas 🔥🔥
Legend guru who can bring rain 🌧️ or fire 🔥 by singing raag
Cool.. hope you enjoy your journey with Indian classical music and for sure it will add your music and life too.
You can take out "ge" from challenge to pronounce "Challen".
Want to see you and Anuja on same video session... Give and take of two different genres 😍😍😍... Must do it if possible ✨🎼
19:36 "sa ni, sa mi na"
My brain: "saminamina eh eh waka waka eh eh.. 😅
😹
🤣🤣🤣
Learning more from comments as well. Good video
Love these videos on Indian music!
The instrument you talked about at 18:01 is Tanpoora. It provides the basic notes of a scale in the background. Mostly the notes played are Sa Pa. Just like Harmonium, Tanpoora plays a crucial part in learning Hindustani Vocal music
Komal = Soft or she is referring to flat notes
Shuddha = Pure or she is referring towards main notes
Chalan = movement or she is referring towards a particular pattern of notes
Teevra= sharp, referring towards sharp notes
As far as I understand, Raag's can be played on any particular scale notes but usually G# and C# scales are most popular. This needs to be validated.
Just beautiful tutorial ❤️
You just do real thing ❤️ keep it up 👍👍
Beautiful analysis
I loved your explanation ❤️
Komal swar or flat notes means to sing or play the note slightly lower than its actual position. At times when we feel emotional or sentimental, pitch of our tone comes down.
The instrument used in background is called tanpura, it is used to calibrate the voice of artist to the root note or the base note.
4th one, Ascetic would be a more appropriate word compared to stoic. He is more into spirituality and not concerned about the worldly to and fro of joys and sorrows
That's harmonium. It's a must for classical music training. (Not only training but many performances).
It's amazing Westerns have started taking interest in North Indian Classical Music. From the different ornaments, she is using Meend (Glide), and Andolan (Swing a note).
Raag Bhairavi = Phrygian
C Db Eb F G Ab Bb C
Raag Darbari Kanada = Aeolian (basically Minor scale) with oscillation on 3rd and 6th degree of the scale
You have made me her fan too❤❤
Every raag also have a time to sing like in the early morning or evening or midnight.
So students use to stay with their teacher for years to learn these.
Music has no barriers.... no boundries..... Appreciate your efforts and desire to learn..... Try listening Raag Bhupali in early hours around 4 am.... It's worth it...
Plz interview her she is amazing teacher of indian classical music
Very good analysis sir..
Raag Bhairavi is one of the toughest Raag in indian classical music it's used in variety of situations.
This is good thanks.
"May mankind be of one mind, May it have a common goal. May all hearts be united in love. And with the mind and the goal being one may all of us live in happiness"
Vedas- 5000 BC
Indeed she is a great teacher , so calm and so clear in her talk
Excellent description
In Indian classical singing we generally use harmonium or a taanpuraa ,or a tabla in this video she is using a taanpuraa as instrument for geting the notes
Ionion(natural major scale) - bilawal thaat
Aeolion(natural minir scale) - Asavari "
Lydian(major wid raised 4th) - Yaman or kalyan
Mixolydian(major wid lowered 7th) - Khamaj
Dorian(minor wid raised 6th) - Kafi
Phrygian(minor scale wid lower 2nd) - Bhairavi
Lòcrian(minor wid lower 2nd and 5th) - Raag todi
Waiting for a collab video with Anuja ji.
Hey... The CDEGAC you played is the raag "Mohanam" .. its one of the most pleasing ragas out there.
If you are into Indian classical fusion rock please react to Agam : Mist of Capricorn. It's just mind bogglingly amazing
Ah, I love that you are trying so hard to pronounce the Raaga names correctly. I am the same way when I try to pronounce someone's else name, especially. Indian names are syllable based - so they sound exactly as they are written. So, we try to write Indian names the same way in English - if you read it as it is written, you will get very close to what it should sound like.
Secondly, you noticed that she wasn't trying to pretend. You notice that because it resonates with you and that is what you do as well - no pretense. You even expose your vulnerabilities before your audience (like looking up a word).
Here is the equivalent of the Lydian mode - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalyani_(raga). This also gives you a mapping, roughly, of the notes Sa, Re .. to C, D etc., Keep in mind though that the mapping is relative - one can start the first note "Sa" anywhere on the keyboard and the rest of the notes fall in place due to the relative distance from the base "sa".
Keep spreading joy through music!
Please react to Mist of Capricorn.
Its a classical progressive rock based on Carnatic music of India.
Tansen & Baiju Bawara were greatest singers were in Akabr's kingdom/ durbar around 1400 to 1500 A.D. During their performance they could move things like eg., flowers used to blossom, things used to fly in the air, even rain used to come during their performance. In Hindustan history these people were greatest. Whereas Meera Bhai when she used to sing Lord Krishna (God) used to appear before her & used to listen to her performance (Singing). This is true, She lived in Rajput Royal family. The story goes like that she never married, But she always praised singing about Lord Krishna( God Krishna).
Meera bai was married to a king
14:06 - 14:10 This pentatonic scale is called Raag Bhupali of the Kalyan Thaat which is best if practiced between 6:00 PM and 9:00 PM.
Aarohanam (ascending) - S, R, G, P, D, S / Do, Re, Mi, So, La, Do.
Avarohanam (descending) - S, D, P, G, R, S / Do, La, So, Mi, Re, Do.
Raag Bhairavi is last raag of music circle, it means endd od session mostly sung in early hours of morning n at the end of night, Raag bhup is first raag of morning welcoming sunrise or new dawn of any good thing
In simple
Chalan is just how notes walk .
The meaning of the word Chalan is the movement or development of the Rag while performing an alap .Alap means the improvisation of the notes of the Rag or scale.
Waiting ✋
Something to make you more interested...the pentatonic scale you played on black keys also corresponds to Raga Bhoopali :)
Raag bihag notes c e f g b c(5 notes ascending) c b a g f# g e f d c (7 notes descending using both f and f#)
Excellent 👍👍
H, the UA-cam algorithm is working in your favour. I have watched exactly one of your videos (and enjoyed it immensely). But since then, UA-cam has been insistent beyond belief that I watch this. Even if I am watching MMA highlights or Carl Sagan, this one is at the top. Well, here goes!
Love to hear that! Wish it did that for more of my videos :) Thanks for letting me know and I hope you enjoy this one too!
@@HofTheStage I did. It was beautiful. Somehow I enjoy these performances more when viewed from your perspective. Keep up the good work and all the best!
ChaLan
Solfege= Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Dha Ni Sa
Komal = flat notes
Shuddha = natural notes
Tivra = sharp notes
Bhairav
Bhairavi
Sringar = Mackup
also
Sringar= In this, the fulfillment of the happiness that comes due to the mutual union of the hero and heroine is shown. It is of two types - one coincidence and the other disconnection. The meeting and separation of the hero heroine.
Great bro🔥
You should interview some classical singer who can explain you more about Indian classical music ❤️
You should react to songs from movie called ROJA it has all the legendary musicians of India. It will be very informative for you.
(It will have the highest views because no one reaction channel has found them yet)
When she says Chalan it's Ch as in Church, shudha means pure...
Probably some basics will help you.
There are 2 major classical forms in India - North Indian Classical (this one) and Karnataki Classical.
All below are based on north Indian Classical.
Western = indian = indian full name
do/C = Sa = Sadaj
re/D = re = Rishabh
mi/E = ga = Gandhar
fa/F = ma = madham
so/G = pa =pancham
la/A = Dha = dhaivat
si or ti/B = Ni = nishad
Also called "Suddha swar"
Half Scales
flat = komal; sharp = teevra.
but ..
Only re, ga, dha, ni has komal, and ma has teevra
e.g.
c# / d- = komal re (e.g. not called teevra Sa)
d# / e- = komal ga
f#/ G- = teevra ma
g# / A- = komal dha
A# / b- = komal ni
aaroha = going up
avaroha = going down
e.g.
in raaga bhupali
aaroha = Do - re -mi - so - la - do / sa re ga pa dha sa.
avaroha = do - la - so - mi - re - do / sa dha pa ga re sa.
Chalan = flow of the raga.
similar concept = pakad : More or less default/ minimal set of notes which gives you feel of the raaga. (not the exact definition but to get some idea)
(pakad literally means catch / to catch. )
(If I remember correctly, in raaga bihag, suddha ma (F) is used in aaroha (going up) while teevra ma (f#) is used in avaroha (going down))
Tar sur = upper scale
Also Raaga's have 3 characteristics swar. Wadi = most important note of the raaga. Samwadi = 2nd most important note. Nyaas swar = generally the note where you tend to rest or end.
Thaat : This is an interesting one. Probably to categorize 100's of raagas , experts came up with 10 base raaga's or thaats. These raaga's generally have all 7 notes (or variations of them.)
e.g. thaat bilawal - sa - re - ga - ma - pa - dha - ni (C D E F G A B)
thaat bhairavi - sa - komal re - komal ga - ma - pa - komal dha - komal ni (C D- E- F G A- B- )
Each raaga is considered belonging to one thaat.
--------------------------------
Good to see your interest in so many different singing cultures. keep it up.
The above is my recollection of what I learned years ago.
In Indian Classical music there are 7 main notes - Shudhha notes
Apart from these seven notes, there are 5 other notes - Komal(Re,Ga,dha,Ni) and Teevra note (Ma)
The Komal notes are Flat notes
Teevra note is Sharp
Raags are sung on the basis of feelings, seasons, expressions, etc. She is really good in explaining the theory.... grt
The word 'Chalan' [pronounced: Chu (like in Chu-rch) + lu (like in Lu-st) + un (like in un-known) = Chu-lu-un ] is connected to the word Chaal which means the way something/someone moves. So Chalan in the context of raag explains how the notes are moving or the movement of notes in a raag. Not sure if that made sense to you. I just tried explaining how I would do to a student of Hindi. ☺️ Btw, you have a great appetite for learning Indian music. Please continue to study this art form and share your thoughts like you do in your videos. All the best.
For your knowledge Raaga Bhairavi is called the queen of all raaga
I think this background instrument is viina which is like a big guitar which our indian music goddess sarasvati bears
Also learning with you.
You need to first look into the 10 thaats ( the parent scale ) before you look into the ragas( which can be classified under them).
The 10 thaats are:
Bilawal, Kalyan, Khamaj, Bhairav, Poorvi, Marwa, Kafi, Asavari, Bhairavi and Todi.
Indian classical music is like an infinite cosmos. Just dive into it and enjoy the oneness with this cosmos.
*CHALAN* : CH as in `change`, not as in `champagne`. After that AL(sounds like ULL (emphasis on L) as in `hull`. Finally, AN(sounds like UN) as in `under`. CH-UL-UN. Together, CHUL as in chug but L instead of G, followed by UN.
*BHAIRAVI* : BHAIR as in chair but with a B instead of C, followed by VI as in WE. BHAIR-WE
