Question

Which one of the following belongs to Bilawal Thata?

A.

Kedar

B.

Bihag

C.

Bhupali

D.

Ramkali

Correct option is B


Correct Option: b)
The Bilawal Thaat is considered the most fundamental and "pure" scale in Hindustani music, equivalent to the Western major scale.
Information Booster:
· The raga belonging to the Bilawal Thaat is Bihag.
· While Bihag is often associated with the Kalyan Thaat because of its romantic feel, its core scale structure uses Shuddha Madhyam “M” and Shuddha Nishad “N”, placing it squarely within the Bilawal Thaat according to the Bhatkhande classification system.
· Its scale is S R G M P N S' (Aroha) and S' N D P M G R S (Avaroha), which is essentially a Bilawal scale with Dhaivat “Dha” omitted in the ascent.
Additional Knowledge:
· Kedar: Belongs to the Kalyan Thaat due to the use of Tivra Madhyam “M^”.
· Bhupali: A pentatonic raga with the scale S R G P D S', classified under the Kalyan Thaat.
· Ramkali: Uses Komal Ga “g” and Komal Ni “n”, placing it in the Kafi Thaat.
