Raaga Chakra

Raaga Chakra is a special playlist produced by Samved Project in which renowned Sitar player Imran Khan is playing 10 intricate Raagas on the Sitar.In Hindustani (Indian) classical music, each raag is rendered only at a specific time. The time of the raag depends on the vaadi swar(Sonant note) and the anuvadi swars(Assonant note). This is so as each raag with it's particular swar(Note) is more effective if performed at a particular time. It is supposed to enhance the ras (Mood) of the raag that the artist is responsible for evoking. This connection of time of the day or night, with the Raga is based on daily cycle of changes that occur in our own body and mind which are constantly undergoing subtle changes in that different moments of the day arouse and stimulate different moods and emotions.
