Question

RGMPMGRGRS - indicates the raga:

A.

Des

B.

Gaud Malhar

C.

Chayanat

D.

Jai-Jai Wanti

Correct option is D


Correct Option: d)
In Hindustani raga grammar, a specific, characteristic sequence of notes (pakad or swarup) often serves as a fingerprint for identifying the raga.
Information Booster:
· The given pattern "R G M P M G R G R S" is a classic and definitive ascending-descending phrase (chalan) of Raga Jai-Jaiwanti (also spelled Jaiwanti).
· The phrase highlights its key features: the graceful oscillation around Gandhar “G”, the pivotal movement from Pancham “P” back to Madhyam “M”, and the frequent return to Rishabh “R”.
· This specific chain of notes is highly characteristic and not typical of the other listed ragas.
Additional Knowledge:
· Raga Des would emphasise komal Nishad and have a different phrasing.
· Raga Gaud Malhar would stress the Teevra Madhyam and have a more robust, Malhar-family movement.
· Raga Chayanat would prominently feature both Madhyams (Shuddha and Teevra) in its progression.
