RAAGS
A raag is a melodic framework based on the Teewar notes (Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Dha Ni Sa) and the Komal notes (sa re ga ma pa dha ni sa). When playing in a certain raag, there are rules of what notes you can use and what you can not use. Song compositions fall into one of the raag categories. There are many different raags meant for different times of the day and even for different purposes.
