S-r-G-m-P-D-N-S

---

A hybrid of two morning ragas: Bhairav and Bhatiyar. While the movements of the latter take centre-stage, its typical PGrS descending phrase is replaced by Bhairav’s GmG\rS signature: Ramrang offers indicative patterns including Sm; mPGm; GmPDNP; DmPGmP; DNr; NDP; GmPmrS; PGmrS, occasionally seasoned with tivra Ma via MDS [n.b. ‘Bhairav-Bhatiyar’, though built from the same pairing, is considered to be a distinct form: employing double-Dha amidst other quirks]. The basic SrGmPDNS scale form (shared with Mangal Bhairav and Dakshinatya Basant) also bears a curious trio of relations to the ‘32 expanded thaat’ (i.e. all sampurna scales with exactly 7 swaras): being prakriti with #18, a ma-murchana of #3, and a reversal of #24.
