Raganga is a system of classifying ragas within a Thaat based on their
core melodic structure (ang) or a defining set of phrases.
Information Booster:
· The
Kafi Thata Janya Ragas are divided into
five Ragangas.
· This classification, as per scholars like
Pandit Vishnu Narayan Bhatkhande, helps organize the numerous ragas derived from the Kafi scale (
S R g M P D n).
· The five Ragangas typically recognized are:
1.
Kafi Ang,
2.
Bhimpalasi Ang,
3.
Bageshree Ang,
4.
Bahar Ang,
5.
Sindhura Ang.
· Each ang represents a cluster of ragas that share the primary melodic characteristics of that leading raga.
Additional Knowledge:
· The other numbers (
2, 3, 4) are incorrect as they undercount the distinct melodic families that have evolved from the prolific Kafi Thaat.
