Raga Marwa/Sohini – Hindustani/Carnatic ragas
I learnt a few Vachanas recently in Hindustani ragas. One of them was in Raag Marva. This raag (N R G M D N) that sounds similar to Sohini corresponds to Hamsanandi in the Carnatic scale. It was a challenge as I tried to understand the raag - the beauty of the flat notes eluded me when I tended to lapse into gamakas!
