''.''Ragas in Carnatic music'' by Dr. S. Bhagyalekshmy, Pub. 1990, CBH Publications''Raganidhi'' by P. Subba Rao, Pub. 1964, The Music Academy of Madras Hence this rāga is one of the most popular scales across the world, known with different names in different musical styles. Its nature is mellifluous and smooth. This rāga offers a large scope for compositions. It is ideal for a melodious, but still laid back majestic presentation.

Structure and Lakshana

It is the 5th Rāga in the 5th ''Chakra Bāṇa''. The mnemonic name is ''Bāṇa-Ma''. The mnemonic phrase is ''sa ri ga ma pa da ni sa'' Its ' structure is as follows (see ''swaras'' in Carnatic music for details on below notation and terms): * : * : The notes in this scale are ''shadjam, chatushruti rishabham, antara gandharam, shuddha madhyamam, paṅchamam, chatushruti dhaivatam'' and ''Kakali Nishadam''. As it is a ''Melakarta'' rāga, by definition it is a ''Sampurṇa'' rāga (has all seven notes in ascending and descending scale). It is the ''Shuddha Madhyamam'' equivalent of 65th ''Melakarta'' rāga '' Kaḷyāṇi''.

''. ''Graha bhedam'' is the step taken in keeping the relative note frequencies same, while shifting the ''shadjam'' to the next note in the rāga. Refer table below for illustration of this concept. Notes on above table C as the base for ''Śaṃkarābharaṇaṃ'' is chosen for above illustration only for convenience, as Carnatic music does not enforce ''strict'' frequency/note structure. The ''shadjam'' (S) is fixed by the artist as per the vocal range or the instrument's base frequency. All the other ''svarams'' are relative to this ''shadjam'', falling into a geometric progression-like frequency pattern. The 7th ''Graha bhedam'' of ''Śaṃkarābharaṇaṃ'' has both ''madhyamams'' (Ma) and no ''panchamam'' (Pa) and hence will not be considered a valid ''melakarta'' (rāga having all 7 swarams and only 1 of each). This is only a classification issue with respect to ''melakarta'' scales, while this structure could be theoretically used well to create good music.

Interesting features

The swaras are regularly spaced in these ragas. Hence these six ragas give very good melody, scope for elaboration, experimentation and exploration of phrases. In practice, ''Natabhairavi'' is not elaborated extensively much. ''Harikambhoji'' is taken up for elaboration, but not as much as the rest of the 4 ragas, namely, ''Śaṃkarābharaṇaṃ'', ''Todi'', ''Kaḷyāṇi'' and ''Kharaharapriya''. One of these 4 rāgas is sung as the main rāga in a concert quite often. As can be seen in the illustration, these rāgas can be played using just the white keys of a piano/ organ/ keyboard (rāga in simplified fashion).
