Raga Abhogi Kanada

About Raga Abhogi Kanada

Raga Abhogi / Abhogi Kanada

Abhogi is a raga in Carnatic music and has been adapted to Hindustani music. It is a pentatonic scale, an audava raga. It is a derived scale (janya raga), as it does not have all the seven swaras (musical notes).

Raga Abhogi Kanada is adopted into Hindustani music from Carnatic Style of Music. As it has Kanada Ang, Gandhar is used as Vakra: g m R S. Some musicians sing this Raga without the Kanada Ang (g m R S) rendering m g R S instead and call it Abhogi rather then Abhogi Kanada. This Raga creates a deep atmosphere and can be expanded in all the three octaves.

The notes used are shadjam, chathusruti rishabham, sadharana gandharam, shuddha madhyamam and chathusruthi dhaivatham. Abhogi is considered a janya raga of Kharaharapriya, the 22nd Melakarta raga, though it can be derived from Gourimanohari too, by dropping both panchamam and nishadam.
