Raag Kedar is a Hindustani classical raga. It is named after the Kedarnath temple in the Himalayas, which is dedicated to Lord Shiva. The raga is said to have originated in the 16th century and is considered to be one of the most important ragas in the Hindustani tradition.
Raga Kedar is a shaadava-sampurna raga, which means that it has six notes in its ascending scale (arohana) and seven notes in its descending scale (avarohana). The notes of the raga are:
Sa (suddha)
Re (shuddha)
Ga (shuddha)
Pa (daivatya)
Dha (shuddha)
Ni (shuddha)
Sa (tifra)
The characteristic feature of Raga Kedar is the use of the komal ni (flat ni) in the avarohana. This gives the raga a sense of longing and melancholy. The raga is also characterized by its use of the meend, or glide, between notes.
Raga Kedar is typically sung in the morning or evening. It is associated with the emotions of love, devotion, and peace. Some of the famous compositions in Raga Kedar include:
* "Soch Samajh Manameet Piyarwa" by Amir Khusrow
* "Kedar Deepak" by Tansen
* "Kedarwani" by Hariprasad Chaurasia
Raga Kedar is a complex and challenging raga to sing. It requires a deep understanding of the raga's theory and practice. However, it is also a very rewarding raga to sing, and can be used to express a wide range of emotions.
Here are some additional facts about Raga Kedar:
* The raga is said to have been created by the sage Narada, who is said to have received it from Lord Shiva.
* The raga is associated with the monsoon season, and is often sung during this time.
* The raga is said to have healing properties, and is often used to relieve stress and anxiety.
* Raga Kedar is a popular raga in both vocal and instrumental music.
I hope this article has given you a better understanding of Raga Kedar. If you are interested in learning more about this raga, I recommend that you consult a qualified Hindustani classical musician or teacher.
