    Question

    Assuming Rishabh Swara as Shadaj in the Swaras of Raga Kafi, the swaras of which Raga will be found:

    A.

    Bhairavi

    B.

    Todi

    C.

    Desi

    D.

    Bilawal

    Correct option is A


    Correct Option: a)
    In Hindustani music theory, shifting the tonal centre or 'Sa' to another note of a scale is a conceptual exercise to discover equivalent modal structures. This process reveals how the same set of intervals can produce different ragas when perceived from a new fundamental.
    Information Booster:
    · The scale of Raga Kafi is: Sa, Re, komal Ga, Ma, Pa, Dha, komal Ni, shuddha Ni “Ṡ”.
    · When Rishabh “Re” is assumed as the new Shadaj “Sa'”, every note's functional identity changes relative to this new base.
    · The new scale becomes: Sa' (old Re), komal Re' (old komal Ga), shuddha Ga' (old Ma), Ma' (old Pa), Pa' (old Dha), komal Dha' (old komal Ni), shuddha Ni' (old shuddha Ni).
    · This resulting scale— Sa, komal Re, shuddha Ga, Ma, Pa, komal Dha, shuddha Ni—is the exact scale of Raga Bhairavi.
    Additional Knowledge:
    · Raga Todi would require a different intervalic structure (e.g., shuddha Ga and shuddha Dha are not present in this transformation).
    · Desi is not a standard primary raga matching this scale.
    · Bilawal requires all shuddha notes, which is not the case here.
