Raga Kafi

Raga Kafi  is a raga in Hindustani classical music. It corresponds to Kharaharapriya in Carnatic music. This is also referred to as the Bhairavi of night. Both Shuddha Nishad & Gandhar are occasionally used. 


Kafi has a direct lineage with the folk music of India. Folk music in Tappa, Hori, Dadra, Kirtan and Bhajans from different parts of India have been composed in this raga. The atmosphere created is most suitable for both types of Shringar (Separation & Union) and hence many Thumri & Hori compositions are sung in this Raga.

Many variations of Kafi exist. Contamination with vivadi swaras is common. This mixing has given rise to Mishra Kafi. The raga is performed during any season.

Vishnu Narayan Bhatkhande classified most ragas into ten Thaats. Kafi Thaat is one of them. The raga Kafi is the principal raga of its Thaat. According to Bhatkhande, its name first appears in the Raga Tarangini of Lochana Pandit, who lived in the Mithila district around the 15th century CE.

Kafi is a sampoorna-sampoorna or heptatonic raga. The atmosphere created is most suitable for both types of Shringar (Separation & Union) and hence many Thumri & Hori compositions are sung in this Raga.

Various ragas, such as Bhimpalasi, Bageshree, Kafi Kanada, Bahar, and Brindabani Sarang are associated with this raga. Important tributaries of this raga include Sindhura, Barwa, Neelambari and Pilu.

Raga Bilawal

 Bilaval had become the basic scale for North Indian music by the early part of the 19th century. Its tonal relationships are comparable to the Western music C major scale. Bilaval appears in the Ragamala as a ragini of Bhairav, but today it is the head of the Bilaval thaat. The Ragamala names Bilaval as a Putra (son) of Bhairav, but no relation between these two ragas are made today. Bilaval is a morning raga to be sung with a feeling of deep devotion and repose, often performed during the hot months.


Rag Bilawal is the most basic rag in Bilawal thaat.  Indeed, the name of the that is derived from this rag.  Interestingly enough, this rag has been declining in popularity over the years. Bilaval or Bilawal  is a raga and the basis for the eponymous thaat (musical mode) in Hindustani classical music. Raga Bilaval is named after Veraval, Gujarat. This rag is sometimes referred to as Shuddha Bilawal to distinguish it from the more popular Alhiya Bilawal.

Bilaval is one of the raags that is in the Sikh tradition from northern India, and is part of the Sikh holy scripture (Granth), the Sri Guru Granth Sahib.

Bilawal is considerd by most to be Sampurna - Sampurna.  However, some are of the opinion that it should be considered Shadav - Sampurna due to the weakness of its Ga in the arohana.

Raga Bhimpalasi

Bhimpalas or Bheempalasi or Bhimpalasi is a Hindustani classical raga.

Raga Bhimpalasi is belongs to the Kafi Thaat.



Among day Ragas, Bheempalasi is a very sweet and hauntingly pleasant melody. The initial development via Alaap is done very artistically to produce the Raag mood which is then thrown into waves with Taans. The rendering of Komal Nishad needs practice with these combinations: g m P n S' n S' n S' . Rendering this way will give the required higher shruti to Komal Nishad.

This is a Poorvang Pradhan Raag. It is expanded freely in all the three Octaves. 

This Raag is similar to Raag Aabheri in Carnatic Music. Raag Dhanashree is similarly to Raag Bheempalasi, but Dhanashree has Pancham as a Vadi Swar whereas Raag Bheempalasi has Madhyam as a Vadi Swar.
