Raga Jog

About Raga Jog

Raga Jog

Jog is a raga, in Hindustani classical music that belongs to Khamaj Thaat. It is one of the more popular ragas appearing often in films. Sometimes, experts assign this raga to be a member of Kafi Thaat. The raga bears a close resemblance to raga Nat of the Karnataka tradition. This is a very melodious and straight forward raga.

Raga Jog is sung in small hours of the morning, just after midnight. It has a magical quality that lives up to its name (jog indicates a state of enchantment). It is quite a popular raga too, often adopted to lighter forms of music.

It is rumored to have been the creation of Mehbub Khan of Atrauli (Daras Piya).

This is a very melodious and straightforward raga. In this raga both Gandhars are used, Shuddha Gandhar in Aaroh and Komal Gandhar in Avroh. But in Avroh, both the Gandhars may be used simultaneously like: P m G m G g S. Meend is used to render from Komal Gandhar to Shadj(S). And while rendering m g S, Shadj is used as a Kan-Swar before Gandhar like m (S)g S.

In Uttarang, sometimes while ascending towards Tar Shadj, Nishad is rendered in Meend using Tar Shadj (Sa') as a Kan-Swar, like - G m P (S')n S', which makes Nishad a bit more raised then the regular Komal Nishad. This is a Meend Pradhan Raag which can be rendered freely in all the three octaves.

Jog raga is fairly expandable, appealing and allows fairly varied tempo. It is inclined to touch the sentiments of separation and loss, but not of extreme states.
