The outline and Dha–Ga emphasis follow Tanarang. This is not the Carnatic raag Devagandhari; those names are not merged as aliases. Notation: r/g/d/n = komal; m = shuddha Ma; M^ = tivra Ma; apostrophe = upper octave; comma = lower octave. Outlines do not replace phrase grammar. These are introductory outlines; phrases, ornament and tradition give a raga its identity.
