Komal Rishabh Asavari (also known as Asavari) has the scale: Aroha: S R m P d S' | Avaroha: S' n d P m g R S. If we modify its descent by omitting certain notes, we arrive at a related raga.
Information Booster:
· If in the Avaroha (descent) of Asavari, we avoid both Komal Nishad ‘n’ and Komal Gandhar ‘g’, the resulting scale is that of Desi.
· Asavari's full descent is: S' - n - d - P - m - g - R - S.
· Removing both 'n' and 'g' from the descent leaves: S' - d - P - m - R - S.
· This simplified descent, combined with the typical Asavari ascent (S R m P d S'), is characteristic of the allied raga Desi (or Deshkar-a morning raga, but contextually here, Desi).
· Desi often omits these notes in descent, leading to a more pentatonic feel.
Additional Knowledge:
· Gunkali has a descent of S' d P m G R S (uses Shuddha Ga, not Komal Ga, and often includes Ni).
· Devgandhar emphasizes Shuddha Gandhar and Shuddha Nishad.
· Asawari is the original raga itself, not the derived one.
