Sa-Ga-Ma-Da-Ni-Sa

Suddenly had a brain wave about these ragas and wanted to briefly comment on them…. will update this later in the evening, with some examples in carnatic and film music. If anybody can think of any other raga with the same swara arrangement, please add to the list. :-)

Hindolam: [Natabhairavi janya, Mela 20]

s-g2-m1-d1-n2-s || s-n2-d1-m1-g2-s

Carnatic song: Ramanukku Mannan

Chandrakauns: [Keeravani janya, Mela 21]

s-g2-m1-d1-n3-s || s-n3-d1-m1-g2-s

Carnatic song: Kandena Govindana

Sunadha Vinodhini: [Mecha Kalyani janya, Mela 65]

s-g3-m2-d2-n3-s || s-n3-d2-m2-g3-s

Carnatic song: Devadhi Deva

*update (01:13) – just as I was about to hit the sack, this thought almost yanked itself out of my head, as if saying “dude! how can you forget about me?” :-)

Shuddha Hindolam: [Karaharapriya janya, Mela 22]

s-g2-m1-d2-n2-s || s-n2-d2-m1-g2-s

Carnatic song: Thunai Purindharul
