How Do We Identify A Raag When We Hear It

How Do We Identify A Raag When We Hear It

First the disclaimer - functioning of the human mind is an extremely complex and vast field of study. Generations of scientists have researched on the subject and unearthed several concepts and theories, some evolutionary and others revolutionary. I don't claim to have even an iota of that enormous pool of knowledge. As fascinating as the subject is to me, I am a beginner in it. Therefore, the most I can attempt is a common sense and somewhat rational analysis of this interesting point that has been raised by many.

 

 

When I hear the tune of a particular movie song, its lyrics come to mind. And when I hear the lyrics of a movie song, its tune comes to mind. Similarly, in Western classical music, my mind associates a certain set of movements with a label or title. So when I hear it, I say - this is Mozart's symphony # 25.

Now let's consider the raags. We are now faced with an additional factor, a big one. While a movie song is always a fixed and defined melody, a raag is not. So it is not a simple case of the mind associating a label with a tune. There is more happening here. What's that more ? To understand that, I think it'll help us to first give some kind of form and definition to the concept of raag. It is a very difficult concept to define. But for the sake of this discussion, let's say a raag is a melodic framework constituted by a set of rules of movement and emphasis. Within that framework any number of melodic patterns and movements can be constructed. A rudimentary example of that framework could be as follows:

1. Available notes are - S, R, G, M, P, D, N. 2. S-R-G is prohibited. Instead 'N-R-G is prescribed. 3. P is not allowed in aaroh. It is only avarohi. 4. Emphasis must be given on G, P and N. 5. Ending the movements with D-N-S should be avoided. Instead 'N-R-S is prescribed.  

And we give this set of rules, this framework, a name - Yaman. (Most likely that's not how the raags got or get created. I am pretty sure that the raags evolved through a natural creative process, and were formalized into rules later. But that's a different issue and not relevant to our discussion. What's relevant here is the fact that there is a framework of these five rules/guidelines, and it is called Yaman).

 

 

Now, an artist performing Yaman can weave any number of melodic phrases and movements within this framework. That last part is the key - "within this framework". Correct rendition of Yaman has to follow these rules. And I think therein lies, at least partially, the answer to our question. When I hear a raag a few times, my mind perceives and registers that framework. Even though the exact tunes I hear in four different Yaman compositions are different, the rules being followed are the same. Those rules may not be stated to the listener, but are implicit in what s/he is hearing. Probably a listener's mind perceives the common arrangement and movements of notes in those four compositions, translates them into unstated common rules, and stores them somewhere, with an associated label - Yaman. Of course, the label is secondary here. The main process happening here is relating melodies based on common frameworks, and storing the resultant association. If a label (Yaman) is provided, the mind will store that too along with it.

 

 

Before I started reading about and learning classical music, it happened so often that I would find something unmistakably common between two or more movie songs. I would be certain that they are based on the same raag, without knowing the name of that raag. (I am sure I am not the only one who has experienced this).

 

 

It seems that the mental process of figuring a raag on hearing it is a little abstract. It is not simple as in case of a song, which is primarily storing a tune in some kind of memory-store, associating a label with it, and retrieving the tune given the label or retrieving the label given the tune. In case of a raag, perhaps the process is that of perceiving common rules/guidelines/patterns among renditions of a raag, conceptualizing the observed rules/patterns into some kind of a loose framework, and storing it. And of course, retrieving it when one hears a melody that is essentially following the same framework. The process of abstraction and association may not be at conscious but subconscious level.

 

 

Naturally, this process is slightly more complex than that of identifying a song, and probably requires better ability of perception, abstraction and association. That is probably why one person can figure a raag intuitively on hearing it, and another cannot, even if both possess the same knowledge about it. But I wonder if this can be generalized. I am sure there are people whose association and conceptualization is strong and evident in other fields but not in music. So is our state of evolution of these mental faculties relative to the subject matter ?

Thanku SOOOOO MUCH Di 🤗
I was waiting for this post! 😊
Too bad Sahana won't be online till 27th

Yes anol the same thought came to me too . we need inputs on this seriously as this will help us all when we get into the classical music podcast thng. still waiting for inputs frm Appa.

Okay bhaskar asked me to post this here in this post. it is also there at page 3.

H O W   T O   I D E N T I F Y   R A G A S?

(Raga identification is really an art. It's difficult to precisely put down how one goes about doing it. What follows is only an attempt to indicate some of the standard approaches.)


is there an "algorithm" for identifying ragas? Yes, of course.(Otherwise, who can identify ragas?) Only that some steps of the algorithm are really tough and yes that should be algorithm"s". At least three of them! (and more by mixing these three algorithms.) let's take thm one by one. The toughest to the easiest...


1) This algorithm is a rigorous one. Yu listen to the music (in which yu want to identify the raga)& "swaramize" it, i.e. get the swaras corresponding to the music.During this process, yu'll see what swaras go up and down. In other words, you'll get to know the "aarohanam"(swaras going up the scale)and "avarohanam"(swaras down the scale). Simply match these with the definition of ragas, yu get the name. ( If yu remember the characteristic phrases of the raga, this step is easy.)


The crucial and a very difficult part here is the swaramizing(could nt get any word here 😊 ) stage. This needs (most of the time) a formal training in music or a rigorous practice in music. For some people, it may even take years! So.. for the uninitiated, pl don't try this. But without any doubt this is the only foolproof (albeit slow) method.


2) This algorithm needs a keyboard (or some other music instrument). Basically, yu follow Algorithm-1 but the swaramizing ( 😊 ) is somewhat simplified. Yu do not have to get the swaras by yurself, the keyboard will take care of it. Yu just have to find the notes that "resonate" with notes of the music.All the other steps are almost the same as Algorithm-1. So.. yu can get the notes corresponding to the music and hence the notes up and down the scale. Matching with raga definition, yu get the raga name.


There is a catch here. Yu could have noticed, i suddenly switched over to "Notes" instead of Swaras. Yes.. yu get only the notes, NOT the swaras. Wht i mean is, yu may not be able to get the correct swara placings, i.e. the basic sruti may be difficult to trace. (If there is a tambura/sruti-box with the music yu listen, no problem.) So.. if yu take the wrong sruti, yu will end up (only exception is Raga Gopriya)in the wrong swaras and consequently an incorrect raga name. There r many songs (especially film songs) on ragas Mohanam, Hindolam,etc(these ragas form a so called "grahadeda" group) that'll easily make yu do such mistakes. One more difficulty is, some of the ragas with "vakra" phrases may let you conclude wrongly, because yu have traced only the notes. For e.g., a Yaman Kalyan piece may let yu conclude as Yaman/Kalyani.


3) This is the simplest and the method usually suggested by many people. (it's useful in situations where yu have no access to a keyboard. e.g, How can yu take a keyboard to a concert?) The algorithm is based on identifying "similarities" between songs of the same raga. Yu ask your gurus to tell yu songs of the same raga and listen to thm carefully. Yu start noting similarities, then yu generalize thm(properly) and form a picture of the raga in your mind.(This may tak quite sometime for some ragas.) Then, whenever the raga is played, yu;ll naturally see some "patterns match" (depending on how many songs yu've heard in the raga
and how far yu've generalized it. of course, the raga difficulty also comes in.), then yu can associate a name for the raga yu know. I warn you, this conclusion always comes "with some probability". yu cannot be sure unless yu have listened to music for years or the raga is very simple.


There are 2 crucial things in this algorithm. (They are the secrets for the success!)

1. yu should listen to the "correct" music for each raga
2. yu should really listen to them. i.e. very very carefully, if possible

   ask your gurus or someone who knows to tell yu, at which places the raga shows itself clearly.


The time to identify a raga using Algorithm-3 without any doubt depends on these two steps and yur "inclination" to grasp the raga.


This algorithm works most of the time for all standard ragas and is the easiest and quickest method of all. i have seen even big gurus use this method. Of course, they wont simply follow. Usually, they use this and confirm by using Algorithm-1. This hybrid algorithm, according to me, is the best way to identify ragas. The novices can still use Algorithm-3 and be happy with it. (Only for some very uncommon ragas, the algorithm will fail.) To stress it again, the most important thing here is you should keep listening, listening and listening. Otherwise, the "picture" goes out of yur mind or gets corrupted.


There is a further short cut to algorithm-3, if yu have the habit of listening to film songs. The film songs, for many ragas, give yu the picture very fast, because many of these yu have listened many many times or simply because they are catchy. Again a warning, yu should follow only the "right" film songs. Otherwise,they'll unnecessarily mislead yu. But, they are definitely short-cuts! (For some ragas, I still use film songs as references.) Still, according to me, yu cannot get the full picture of the raga unless yu listen to the purely classical versions. The latter is a must, no other way.


(i have seen people getting the "picture" easily, e.g. those who have been listening to classical music from childhood, but not being able to identify the raga name. Well.. for all purposes, these people have "identified" the raga. They have to only associate the name with picture of the raga they "see". This is easy to do after a bit of memorization. It's just like associating a name with a person's face you recognize!)


To conclude, raga identification is not really difficult! Anyone can identify, provided he/she listens regularly(and patiently) to good classical music. No theory, no books needed. Yu will need all the knwledge only if you want to appreciate and master the raga in depth.

Gr8 post di 👍🏼
I am sure an untrained person like me will learn a lot from this thread 😊

mere to sar ke upar se gaya

😭 😭 😭

someone pls explain to me what does this mean to a asur like me( in abhijeet words)

Thank you Barnali.

To a casual observer of music, to an untrained ear, it is the melody which appeals. As he or she pays closer attention, they pick up the nuances or the rules, as it is called, which then define the raaga.... and it is this which then prompts the listener to keenly observe other similar sounding music or melody and tie them up as being originating from the same raaga.

It will be an interesting experience to pick our similar sounding songs or music (from the point of view of a new entrant into the world of music), then pick out the common elements and discuss their link to the originating raaga.

Wonderful thoughts Priya - to my untrained ears, I may not be able to identify which Raaga a song is based on, but I do find similarilties of sur in a lot of songs...

Some examples that immediately come to mind are:

Albela Sajan Aayo Re (HDDCS) and Aye yaar teri pehli nazar ko salaam (Ek duje ke liye)

Tu ganga ki mauj main (Baiju Bawra), Meethe bole bole (Kinara), Hume tumse pyaar kitna (Kudrat)

Kuchh dil ne kahaa (Anupama), O Beqarar Dil (Khamoshi ?)

Ishwar satya hai (Satyam Shivam Sundaram), Aapki nazron ne samjha (Anpadh)

And the list probably continues for ever....

It will be a good learning to know the science (the raagas) behind this uncanny similarity of music 😊

barnaliji thanks for starting the thread..i will try my best to understand..please please give a lot of examples...not only will it make the thread interesting and entertaining..we can have people,not trained in music like me, to understand too.. 😊

may be you can edit the thread title later to say..."raag durbari"then the tecnical points and.. further some film songs based on it..
