Correct Option: b)
Each raga possesses a unique melodic personality, often encapsulated in a characteristic phrase or 'pakad.' This pakad acts as a musical signature, instantly identifying the raga through a specific sequence and treatment of notes.
Information Booster:
· Nayaki Kanhara is characterised by phrases like NPMPGMRSR, where the delicate touch of Pancham and the movement from Nishad to Madhyam are key.
· Chayanat is known for its majestic progression RGMNDPR, highlighting the glide from Gandhar to Nishad via Madhyam and Dhaivat.
· Desi often employs the oscillating phrase MPDNDP, emphasising the interplay between Madhyam, Pancham, and Dhaivat with komal Nishad.
· Ramkali has a signature phrase RGSRNS, where the movement from Rishabh to Gandhar and the use of both Nishads (in the phrase context) are typical.
Additional Knowledge:
· The phrases provided are classic examples of each raga's distinctive movement, not their full scales.
