Todiang: Unique prespective of Hindustani Music


Todi is one of the major raga and associated ragang of hindustani music, Todi always resemble the softness and the symbol of separation-"Viyogant" can describe someone experiencing longing or sorrow due to separation from a loved one. Among the Todi Raga the prominent part" Todiaang" is the most crucial phrase that reflect and refract the Ragaang Todi is all adjoining raga of Todiaang.  

Here the Todi is : Sa re ga, re ga re Sa,  in Purbang and Ma da Ni da, Sa. Ni da Ni re. Ni da, Ma ga re ga re Sa 

Note : Komal swar/ Flat notes are written in small letter and Suddh/ natural notes are in Capital. Madhyan is Tivra sso sharp madhyan is written as "Ma". Higher octave notes are written followed by "dot" after the note. 

More or less the combination of these notes with any other "aang" in any of the Raga resemble the "Todiaang". There are many Ragas classified under the Todi Thaat but Todi Thaat is not the Todiaang. Raga Multani is not the Todiaang Raga but fall under the Todi thaat. we never use Pa Ma ga re ga re Sa in Multani. The phrase of Todiaang is called Todi Raganga and used in various note combination to create a new Raga. Like Gujari Todi, Pancham note is completely abandon and follow the similar sequence of Todi. Bhupal Todi, Bilashkhani Todi, Badhuri Todi, Hussaini Todi Parameshwari, Anjani Todi, Lachari Todi, Malgunji, Ahari Todi, Bairagi Todi  are few examples. these raga are create with mixing the todi in nay other Raganag .
