Jog (raga)

Jog is a Raga in Hindustani classical music.

Sometimes, experts assign this raga to be a member of Kafi thaat.

Raga Jog omits the second and the sixth intervals, Ri and Dha, making it pentatonic, or Audav in nature.

It takes Raga Tilang for its base which itself is derived from Khamaj thaat.

The Arohana is: Sa Ga Ma Pa ni(komal) Sa' The Avarohana is: Sa' ni(komal) Pa Ma Ga(shuddha) Ma ga(komal) Sa In the notes of the Western scale in the key of C, these roughly correspond to C, E, F, G, B♭, C; C, B♭, G, F, E, F, E♭, C. The raga is played during the late evening (9 PM – 12 night): 2nd Prahar of the night, Ratri ka Dwitiya Prahar Manuja
