S-g-m-P-nN-S

---

A night raga created by renowned Gwalior composer and vocalist Vishwanath Rao Ringe ‘Tanarang’, essentially equivalent to ‘Tilang komal ga’. In his own summary (seemingly the only source of melodic information): “the mood is light…a very sweet melody that manifests readily in the following combinations [e.g. SgmPm, gmPnPNNS; PNSnP; PNSgNS]”. Re is banned entirely, while the raga is distinguished from Dhani by the use of double-Ni. Refer to Vishwajat’s rendition below – and also see other Tanarang creations including Sundarkauns, Saraswati Kedar, and Jogeshwari Pancham.
