Raag Gunkali (a morning melody of Raga System) Artists : Ustad Bade Ghulam Ali KhanSaheb accompanied by Ustad Munawwar Ali Khan Lyrics (like a pray) He Kartar ! Puri Karo Man ki Aashaa "O Lord ! have mercy on me and fulfill my desires." Album : All India Music Archives AIR Vol.6 A Syed Wajid's Presentation *According to Ustad Bade Ghulam Ali KhanSaheb ragas are divided into two types. A raga of the first type may be played between 12 noon and 12 midnight. Ragas of the second type may be played at any time from midnight to 12 noon. The ragas in the first section are known as 'Purva ragas' and those of the second section as 'Uttar ragas . A saptak is also divided into two parts or 'tetrachords'. The first contains Sa, Re, Ga, Ma, and the second the other four notes, Pa, Dha, Ni, Sa. In the purva ragas the vadi swara (the prime or 'life' note of the raga) is taken from the first tetrachord and therefore these ragas are known as purvangavadi ragas. In the same way, the vadi swara in the uttar ragas is usually taken from the second tetrachord, i.e., Pa, Dha, Ni, Sa, and these ragas are called uttarangavadi ragas. When the vadi swara is either 'Sa' or 'Pa', there is no time restriction for the performance of that raga. He also propounded another theory explaining why a particular raga should be sung at a particular time and why, if it is rendered accordingly, it is more effective and appreciated by the listeners. The 24 hours of the day are divided as follows: 4 in the morning to 7 in the morning. 7 in the morning to 10 in the morning. 10 in the morning to 4 in the afternoon. 4 in the afternoon to 7 in the evening. 7 in the evening to 10 at night. 10 at night to 4 in the morning. It will be observed that in the ragas of the first and fourth divisions the 2nd note rishabh and 6th note dhaivat are komal swaras. These ragas are also known as Sandhiprakash ragas. Bhairava of the morning variety and Purvi of the evening, having these notes, are Sandhiprakash ragas. Khan Saheb explained how just a slight change of half a note in the structure of the octave changes the raga from a morning to an evening one. In Raga Bhairava the 4th note, madhyam, is shudha, while in Purvi the 4th note is half a note higher, that is tivra madhyama. He also demonstrated and explained the difference between the morning raga Todi and the afternoon raga Multani. Although both have identically the same notes in the octave, they differ from one another owing to different vadi samvadi notes and different chalan. In the same way ragas in the 2nd and 5th parts have the 2nd note rishabh and the 6th note dhaivat as shudha notes. The ragas of the 3rd and 6th parts have the 3rd note gandhara and the 7th note nishad komal. Khan Saheb however added that this theory was based on his observations of general practices. He was of the firm opinion that the theory of division of ragas according to time has some scientific basis and that physicists should be able to arrive at some final explanation after experiments. to read more, plz click here http://www.chembur.com/anecdotes/bade... -----------------
