Keshavdas
Keshavdas Mishra (1555–1617), usually known by the mononym Keshavdas or Keshavadasa, was a Sanskrit scholar and Hindi poet, best known for his ''Rasik Priya'', a pioneering work of the ''riti kaal'' (procedure period) of Hindi literature. Life Keshavdas Mishra was a Sanadhya Brahman born in 1555 probably near to Orchha at Tikamgarh. There were many pandits among his ancestors and inferences from his writings suggest that, as would be typical of a pandit, the preferred language of his family, and that to which he was exposed as a child, was Sanskrit. Those ancestors included Dinakara Mishra and Tribikrama Mishra, who had both been rewarded by Tomara rulers in Delhi and Gwalior, as well as his grandfather, Krishnadatta Mishra, and his father, Kashinatha Mishra, who had both served as scholars to the rulers of Orchha kingdom. His elder brother, Balabhadra Mishra, was also a poet. Despite the familial connection to Sanskrit, Keshavdas adopted a vernacular style of Hindi, know ...

Graha Bhedam
''Graha Bhedam'' in Carnatic music is the process (or result of the process) of shifting the Tonic note (''śruti'') to another note in the rāgam and arriving at a different rāgam. Its equivalent in Hindustani classical music is called a ''murchhana''. Expressed in Western music theory terms, this is the process of arriving at a different scale by shifting to another mode in the key. ''Graha'' literally means ''position'' and ''Bhedam'' means ''change''. Since the position of the ''śruti'' is changed (pitch of the base note or drone), it is also sometimes called ''Swara Bhedam'' or ''Śruti Bhedam'' though ''Śruti Bhedam'' and ''Graha Bhedam'' have some technical differences. Definition Modal shift of the Tonic note to higher notes of a rāgam, while retaining the note's positions (swara sthānas – sthāna means position/ pitch), results in different rāgams. This is called ''Graha Bhedam''. Practical demo A simple practical demonstration of ''Graha Bhedam'' can be ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Melakarta
Mēḷakartā is a collection of fundamental musical scales ( ragas) in Carnatic music (South Indian classical music). ''Mēḷakartā'' ragas are parent ragas (hence known as ''janaka'' ragas) from which other ragas may be generated. A ''melakarta'' raga is sometimes referred as ''mela'', ''karta'' or ''sampurna'' as well, though the latter term is inaccurate, as a ''sampurna'' raga need not be a ''melakarta'' (take the raga ''Bhairavi,'' for example). In Hindustani music the ''thaat'' is equivalent of ''Melakartā''. There are 10 ''thaats'' in Hindustani music, though the commonly accepted ''melakarta'' scheme has 72 ragas. Rules for ''Mēḷakarta'' ragas Ragas must contain the following characteristics to be considered ''Melakarta''. *They are ''sampurna ragas'' – they contain all seven ''swaras'' (notes) of the octave in both ascending and descending scale''Ragas in Carnatic music'' by Dr. S.
