[5] In modern days, people like the popular Hindi music director C.Ramchandra favour composing songs in Bageshri, as he found it simple.
In a 1978 interview at BBC studios with Mahendra Kaul, he explained this, while playing songs like (Radha na bole – Azad, 1955) that were set to Bageshri.
[6] The theoretical aspects of Bageshri are as follows: D n s, m, m P D, m g R S Thaat: Kafi (raga) The time for this raaga is madhya raatri (middle of the night).
Its ārohaṇa-avarohaṇa structure is as follows (see swaras in Carnatic music for details on below notation and terms): This scale uses the notes shadjam, chathusruti rishabham, sadharana gandharam, shuddha madhyamam, panchamam, chathusruthi dhaivatham, and kaisiki nishadam.
[7] So, even though this scale has been used only in a few krithis (compositions), many devaranamas, ashtapadis, thiruppugazhs, and other lyrics have been set to tune in this raga.
