The time theory (Samay Siddhanta) in Hindustani music assigns specific ragas to particular periods (prahars) of the day and night, based on their mood and melodic structure.
Information Booster:
Beginning with morning ragas:
·
Gunkali is a
morning raga, performed in the
first prahar (sunrise).
·
Desi (a variant of Todi) is also a
late morning raga.
·
Bhimpalasi is an
afternoon raga, prescribed for the
second prahar after noon.
·
Malkauns is a
midnight raga, performed in the
third prahar of the night.
· Thus, the order from morning through the day is
Gunkali, Desi, Bhimpalasi, Malkauns.
Additional Knowledge:
· "Ascending order beginning with morning" means chronological order through the 24-hour cycle.
