Arohana

Arohana

Arohana, Arohanam or Arohan, in the context of North Indian Classical Music and South Indian Classical Music, is the ascending scale of notes in a raga. The pitch increases as we go up from Shadjam (Sa) to the Upper Stayi Shadjam (Sa).

Examples

In Sankarabharanam ragam (29th Melakarta in 72 parent ragam scheme of Carnatic music) the Arohana is "S R2 G3 M1 P D2 N3 S". See swaras in Carnatic music for explanation of notation.

In Abhogi raga, which is a janya ragam of 22nd melakarta Kharaharapriya, the Arohana is "S R2 G1 M1 D2 S". In this ragam certain notes are excluded so the raga is totally changed.
