Some Basic Info about the Ragas –

“Raag”, the enunciation of the word itself is so sonorous.
Raga is a melodic combination of minimum of 5 and maximum of 12 musical notes that can evoke a specific mood and certain emotions while sounding aesthetically appealing to the ear. In the Indian musical tradition, Ragas are associated with different times of the day, or with seasons which speaks volumes for their emotive character

A typical Raga presentation has a defined song flow.

It begins with

Alaap :: A non lyrical improvised prologue to the notes involved in the Raga.
Then movies to the body of the composition called as Bandish :: The compositional phrase of the raga.
And further capitulates to Taans.

Taans :: A virtuosic style of singing the notes in the raga; when the notes are uttered with their respective names then it’s called Sargam taan and when they are sung without utterance of the note names then it’s called Akaar taan.
