Graha, Ansha, and Nyasa are key terms in the grammar of a Raga.
Information Booster:
· Graha, Ansha, and Nyasa are all characteristics or functions assigned to specific notes within the framework of a Raga.
· They define the behaviour and emphasis of notes in melodic exposition.
· Avartana, however, is a term from Tala (rhythm), meaning one complete cycle of the rhythmic pattern.
· It belongs to the domain of time and rhythm, not to the melodic characteristics of a raga's notes.
Additional Knowledge:
· Graha is the starting note of a composition.
· Ansha is the most prominent or sonant note (Vadi) of the raga.
· Nyasa is the note on which a phrase or a composition typically comes to rest.
· The first three are melodic functions in a raga, while Avartana is a rhythmic unit, making it the odd one out.
