What is a Raga?
Short Definition :
Raga's are based from nature, seasons and times of day/ night. Ragas require the musician to become a medium to invoke the mood and feeling above all else while learning new scales and delicate, intricate phrasing.
In learning Raga music the student naturally has to harmonise both brain and heart to perform and present the chosen Raga in order to conjure the Bhava (devotional feeling) or Rasa (essence) correctly thus making this a discipline and therapeutic practice of great inner and outer alignment.
