Miyan ki Todi

A late-morning raga with a searching combination of komal Re, Ga and Dha against tivra Ma. Its beauty lies in the contour and weight of each phrase.

Reading the notes ↗

Pa is often omitted in introductory ascending outlines but belongs to Miyan ki Todi. Film settings may blur the distinction with Gujari Todi. These are introductory outlines; phrases, ornament and tradition give a raga its identity.

FROM THE CLASSICAL TO THE CINEMATIC
