Thaat - The Frame Work

Thaat - The Framework is a special playlist created by Samved Project where Ustad Maqbool Husain Khan is showcasing the root of all Raags in Hindustani Classical music i.e Thaats.North Indian classical music in the twentieth century, each one of the several traditional ragas is based on, or is a variation of, ten basic thaats, or musical scales or frameworks. The ten thaats are Bilawal, Kalyan, Khamaj, Bhairav, Poorvi, Marwa, Kafi, Asavari, Bhairavi and Todi. Ragas are based on ten basic thaats, or musical scales. Each thaat has a different combination of natural (shudhha) notes and flat (komal) or sharp (teevra) notes. This thaat-raga theory was developed by Vishnu Narayan Bhatkande, one of the most influential musicologists in Hindustani classical music in the twentieth century. The Thaat-raga theory is not infallible, but it is an important tool for classifying ragas and for teaching music to students. Ustad Maqbool Husain Khan is the one of the most contemporary artistes of the Rampur Sahaswan gharana and a very well known name in the field of Indian classical music fraternity
