OK, ok, I am a western music music theory expert. Since 1970, I have studied how notes are combined for the harmonic effects, how forms are created for a particular use, and how instrumentation effects the emotion of western music. But now, a whole door has opened to me: Classical Indian musical elements create the sound of that wonderful pallet. Thank you, Anuja Kamat, for creating this explanation of what makes your music wonderful. I think I clearly grasp this pebble from the mountain of Raag. If your explanations are insufficient for me to understand, your voice is not. Nor is your smile. Please keep posting, love. Peace, Carson

I've never seen someone so happy while teaching... makes my day ........ such soulful aura you radiate... I understood very well the concepts and looking forward to more.
I think, even the word UNIQUE is not enough for you. U must be a highly blessed preson as elaboration is beyond the words. Simply SUPERB - OUTSTANDING !!👍💐

I think East starts with emotion and works towards grammar. West starts with grammar and work towards emotions. It applies even for Yoga. It starts with an emotion - that I want to be at peace. Then you figure out the physical steps. Even for ragas, it's highly mood mapped, with timing, season etc.
I have studied (and still study - seems we never stop studying) North Indian Classical music with the sitar and rudra vin in the Bishnipur gharana since 1973. This video is an absolutely perfect explanation of the basics of raag. A must see for anyone who wishes to better understand this wonderful music. Just so well done and your singing is just beautiful.
I come from a multi-ethnic country and grew up hearing Indian music all my life. Here we have even created a fusion between a local sound called soca with Indian music that is called Chutney soca! You have deepened my understanding and appreciation of classical Indian music . I shall listen more intently and with greater joy now. Thank you !
I am a total idiot in classical Indian music, I was looking for a proper explanation for "what is a raag in Indian music," among hundred of TH-cam videos on the subject, finally I found this amazing introduction to "What is a Raag" Thank you very much Anjua, your introduction is very simple, explained it in nursery level language and style! appreciate it very much!
Dear Anuja! My name is Regina, I'm brazilian, and I am totally in love with your channel.. I love to sing in portuguese and english, and I also love india and everything from India, including Indian music.. So I always wanted to learn how to sing like indian artists that I listen to.. But the way you guys sing is so specific and it is so difficult to sing like you guys.. BUT NOW..... watching your channel I can begin to understand about your beautiful way to sing.. I wanna thank you so much.. Please, don't stop posting videos! ♥
As a western musician I can say that the concept of chalan is related to modes. You can have the same set of notes and treat them different to produce certain feelings, but "how" to achieve these sounds is not as explicit as in a raag - it is left to the composer/improviser to know "how" to treat the notes differently. Great videos!
3 things I totally loved/ liked about this video. 1. The inner radiance that you bring to the screen. It seems like you have not been touched by anything that is dark or negative. Magnificent! 2. The clarity and brevity of the piece. I forwarded it to my wife and told her that “In 10 odd minutes, this will change your level of appreciating Indian music classical or classical based popular ones!” 3. Lastly, I did not see any effort to denigrate western music or a supremacist pronouncement as Indian Classical music being the best in the world. I grew up on good old Bangla and Hindi songs, all of which were based on some raag or other. Graduated to being an avid listener Hindustani Classical music (khayal first and then instrumental - a bit reverse order than many others). Started listening to Western Classical music a bit later and was totally wowed by the amazing interplay of melody and harmony. It is only late in life, I got exposed to American Classical Music aka Jazz and Jazz theory - which is most complex, most liberating and allows enormous improvisations in harmony, melody and rhythm. I love when someone explains the musical theory in a lucid and structured manner, because that enriches my listening exponentially. Thank you again! God (or whoever/ whatever you believe in) bless you and may your 1000 watt smile be inextinguishable!
The two theories are so different, it seems that the eastern one naturally displays its far older origins though. I hope to fuse the two eventually with my own music, do you know of any artists currently attempting this?

I've fallen in love with Indian classical music within just a few days of intensively researching and listening to it! Please keep posting. I need to learn Indian classical music and the Raag.
Wow. Truly amazing but yet so simple. Only someone with a deep understanding of classical music combined with enormous compassion could have explained so lucidly.
This is a great intro to Indian Classical Music. Its like Indian Music for Dummies. Its first time I heard anyone explain music so in-depth but in so few words. I was speechless first time I saw it. The worst part about the video was. when you were singing, it was so melodious I forgot the rules you explained a minute earlier. You really have a magical voice. After watching it 5 to 6 times, I finally opened the same video in 2 windows and did a comparative study. In my childhood days, I and my sisters used to visit a music teacher to learn music and we got so confused by all the ragas, variations we got scared and gave up. He was not bad, he was a great musician and performer, but you are a great teacher. Your way of explaining is like some one learning science, everything is logical, everything makes sense where as we were told to just memorize the sequence. In the end I will say this video is very inspirational and encouraging and will help upcoming singers and musicians better understand Indian Music. We never had such a music teacher.
So entertaining and informative-your videos are exactly what I was looking for-voice, instruments, concepts and philosophy. You are extremely appealing- and so generous with you’re knowledge, and both your voice and personality are beautiful! Thank you!
Thanks Anuja Kamat for keeping live the heritage and indian culture in the classical music which one has to understand and study which most of them think it's hard to understand. Nice and enjoyed the way you narrated . Wish for more such videos from you
I use to listen music and can roughly recognise some rags. Your lesson made me understand sense of intricacies of notes in them . Thank you very much for your brilliant teaching. God bless you.
I am wondering if you had a wonderful teacher or maybe amazing parents, or most probably both, because you are just simply amazing, one of a kind, one of the best, and it is really not possible to explain just how amazing of a job you are doing. You are the elephant who does not know his size or the diamond who does not know its worth, yes you must know you are good, but i doubt if you realise you are one of the best, person, singer and teacher. Heartfelt gratitude and all the best wishes for everything you do. Happy Diwali!
Excellent scope of content. Just e enough to gain lots to examine without it being too much to benefit from as a step forward. Well, till next time, it's raagtime.
I thank you from the core of my heart for explaining in such an awesome way. Raag sounds more beautiful to me now because with your help I have started understanding raags. Dhanyawad
I am a 56yrs old man ,started singing just 2yrs back. Being a good listener of hindi film songs in my younger days, I am able to sing a few songs of MUKESHJI, RAFI SAB and KISHORE DA. But still I don't know anything about Raag or swar. This is my 1st lesson of classical Music. Thank you very much.
Anuja, you are a perfect blend of a learner, teacher and performer - something that very few are blessed with. You are on your way to make your mark in life. Best wishes.
I was in awe when I watched this video for the first time which wasn't long ago but since then I come here everyday for 10:09 After watching this video, I was supposed to sleep but I couldn't stop thinking about it for hours. She's an amazing singer. 💖
This is great! As a sitar student I really appreciate these videos. You explain everything in a very nice way and make the concepts very easy to understand. I hope this encourages more people to study Indian classical music. Thank you.
Anuja K, is the best example of letting us know having the knowledge is something, and delivering the knowledge in a simple way is another total different thing, you are skilled in both our mentor Anuja
I can't thank you enough. I am familiar with western music but my knowledge of indian classical music is quite poor. your videos have been immensely helpful in experiencing and understanding the ocean indian classical music is THANKS A TON...
Yes and No. Both are correct- poornakshara sound as well as anglisization. Poornakshara still differentiates between a and aa sound. Thing is our tone that accommodated both laghu and deergh a sounds, has changed due to influence of foreign languages , that's why we end up with this argument.
I would say the vovel a in the end of word Raga is pronounced in Sanskrit not with mouth wide open whereas Westerners pronounce it with wide open mouth as in Ah. In modern practice aa is used to represent that sound. So, I think writing Raaga is a better way to suggest the correct pronunciation. I think experts in pronunciation of English could give examples of English words where the sound of vowel is similar to as in ga in Raga pronounced by the teacher in this video. To tell why the Westerners pronunciation is wrong I point out that the words Rama and Ramaa or Krishna and Krishnaa have different meanings Ramaa means wife whereas Rama is name of the God. It appears that Hindi pronunciation is Raam though in English it is often written as Ram. Fortunately, Ragaa and Yogaa have no other meanings and so no confusion!
Anuja. There are also concepts like vadi, samvadi and pakad of raag. Can you please explain these too. Your explanation of kan swar was very nice. You made it very clear. I would also look for more videos like how we represent or write down swar notation, especially meend, kan swar etc. But your initiative of explaining indian classic music is one of its kind. I was looking for such videos for long time. This is only one that matches my requirement. Excellent anuja... God bless you.
You are really doing an amazing job of educating listeners on so many aspects of Hindustani music. Love the way you explain the concepts. It is very clear and concise and always done with a beautiful smile on your face. The video sends out not just great, useful information to music lovers but also a very positive vibration! Keep it up !
I am a complete newbie...I had heard about the word Raag a lot...Now that exam stress is gone I came across the thought of learning all these Tabla Taals and Raags... Then I searched for meaning of Raag and found this video... Very nicely explained🙏 Thank you very much and... Ya-Man!! Seriously!!

That is obvious. Different singers would sing the same raag differently according to their gharana or locality. Also depends on their own perspective.

I appreciate your efforts to teach classical music, awesome melody. Raaga is not Anglisized, it's Pooranakshara. In Karnataka sangeetha it is Raaga
It is anglicised in the sense that the 2nd A, be it Ragaa or Ramaa it's not such a streched aaa. It's supposed to be a small fleeting A.
Yes,you are right Nandiniji ,Raaga is the carnatic poornakshara ,way of saying it.,not anglicized.
👍
Yes and No. Both are correct- poornakshara sound as well as anglisization. Poornakshara still differentiates between a and aa sound. Thing is our tone that accommodated both laghu and deergh a sounds, has changed due to influence of foreign languages , that's why we end up with this argument.

To tell why the Westerners pronunciation is wrong I point out that the words Rama and Ramaa or Krishna and Krishnaa have different meanings Ramaa means wife whereas Rama is name of the God.
It appears that Hindi pronunciation is Raam though in English it is often written as Ram.
Fortunately, Ragaa and Yogaa have no other meanings and so no confusion!
@@d14d40 Yeah. Sanskrit pronunciation rests on G in Raaga, but, doesn't stretch out the 'a' sound. ( technically hindi's should rest too)

Anuja. There are also concepts like vadi, samvadi and pakad of raag. Can you please explain these too. Your explanation of kan swar was very nice. You made it very clear. I would also look for more videos like how we represent or write down swar notation, especially meend, kan swar etc. But your initiative of explaining indian classic music is one of its kind. I was looking for such videos for long time. This is only one that matches my requirement. Excellent anuja... God bless you.
I wish to learn- if you are into long distance teaching please share skype ID and contacts. Thanks.

Beautifully presented
Absolutely exquisite. If I were in India I could have learnt the sonorous rags from you.
You are really doing an amazing job of educating listeners on so many aspects of Hindustani music. Love the way you explain the concepts. It is very clear and concise and always done with a beautiful smile on your face. The video sends out not just great, useful information to music lovers but also a very positive vibration! Keep it up !
I am really enjoying your videos and learning a lot about Indian classical music. You are very attractive too!

Great job. Education is the key and the highest noble deed. Ignorance is not for humans.
I am a complete newbie...I had heard about the word Raag a lot...Now that exam stress is gone I came across the thought of learning all these Tabla Taals and Raags... Then I searched for meaning of Raag and found this video... Very nicely explained🙏 Thank you very much and...
Ya-Man!! Seriously!! I am not such a Smiling guy...when I see or come across such people who smile and just increase the entropy of the surrounding it feels alien!! 😇
