Reading the notes ↗

The outline, Sa–Pa emphasis and 3–6 PM period follow Tanarang. Occasional shuddha Ni can approach upper Sa. Sindhura is not treated as another name for Sindhu Bhairavi. Notation: r/g/d/n = komal; m = shuddha Ma; M^ = tivra Ma; apostrophe = upper octave; comma = lower octave. These are phrase outlines, not complete performance grammar. These are introductory outlines; phrases, ornament and tradition give a raga its identity.
