| | Raga - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Raga (rāg /राग (Hindi), raga (Anglicised from rāgaḥ/रागः (Sanskrit)) or rāgam /ராகம் (Tamil)) are the melodic modes used in Indian classical music. |  | | Indian classical music is always set in raga, but all raga music is not necessarily classical. |  | | The two streams of Indian classical music, Carnatic music and Hindustani music, have independent sets of ragas. |

 | | Especially the second album from 1965, “The Grail and the Lotus” was pure American raga. |  | | The first ever pop example of an Indian influence came actually from The Seventh Sons who recorded in 1964 their album “raga”, a true open tuning hippie excursion, which was released on the right moment, on ESP, in 1968. |  | | Nice sitarbeat was also released by the guitarist Big Jim-Sullivan (also under the name of Lord Sitar), with Beatles covers played on sitar and backed by a poprock band or a gogo band (Lord Sitar). |

| | The Raga Guide - Introduction |
 | | Broadly speaking then, a raga can be regarded as a tonal framework for composition and improvisation; a dynamic musical entity with a unique form, embodying a unique musical idea. |  | | A raga usually includes quite a large number of traditional songs, composed in different genres by the great musicians of the past. |  | | Where ragas have identical scales, they are differentiated by virtue of these musical characteristics. |

 | | Accordingly we recorded Raga Yamani Bilawal sung by him, with V.G. Jog accompanying on the violin. |  | | From this 20 minute experimental tape of Raga Shri, I had to reconstruct a homogenous performance of the raga to fit on a 78 rpm record. |  | | For the musician, it is among the most difficult Ragas to master. |

| | the Raga - music scales in Indian classical music |
 | | The raga is also meant to create a mood for the listener : those modes are moody ones. |  | | The raga could be described as a mode, i.e. |  | | But Indian modes are not equally tempered like Western modes, they are true scales, where the natural and flattened notes are not at the same pitch in different ragas. |

 | | The raga's ascending and descending sequences are given in staff notation (C is the nominal tonic throughout), with superscript sargam notation in the Roman alphabet. |  | | Their recordings are gradually turning into dust in the back corners of Bombay antique shops; dedicated antiquarians may paw through the boxes, griming their fingers with molecules of music sixty or seventy years old, but most listeners will never hear those forgotten voices. |  | | Casual listeners in the West are often drawn by the music's "surface"; many don't care about theoretical niceties. |

 | | To enjoy Ravi Shankar's music all one has to do is close your eyes and listen (not as a background music, we have other kinds of music for that purpose), the music takes us on a beautiful journey which takes us to a place we've never been before. |  | | I recently got this CD as a gift and this must be the thrid version of Mishra Piloo I have in my collection. |  | | It's passages like this that probably demonstrate Shankar's graceful touch the most, although nothing is lost once the percussion joins in for the rest of the album. |

 | | The Sadharana Gandhara is used as alpathvam (not freely/frequently used).Most of the songs use the Antara Gandhara while few use the Sadharana Gandhara.Rather this raga is a bit restricted in the sense it has to be Alapana, gamakas, swaraprastaram should be limited and this is called Mithathavam. |  | | It is a Minor Raga but has ample scope to be sung as a MINI main in concerts. |  | | This raga sounds good on instruments like Veena,flute and violin than vocal (Its my personal opinion though).GNB has a very rough sahana while M.D.Ramanathan has a softcorner for sahana and performs at great ease. |

| | Pryor, Cornyn Must Disclose Stealth RAGA Donors |
 | | The explicit mission of RAGA’s founders (including ex-Texas Attorney General John Cornyn who now champions Pryor on the Senate Judiciary Committee) is to raise money to elect conservative Republican attorneys general who will resist using their offices to file industry-wide lawsuits like the one against the tobacco industry. |  | | Critics, including Texans for Public Justice, have long complained that RAGA resembles a lawsuit-protection racket because its members appear to solicit the very business interests that most fear state litigation, including Microsoft, HMOs and the gun and lead-paint industries. |  | | Austin, TX: Since they formed the Republican Attorney General Association (RAGA) in 1999, the top lawyers of several states have acted as if they were awaiting judicial confirmation of the fact that they must publicly disclose RAGA’s political contributions and expenditures--as most other political committees routinely do. |
