मारवा
S r G M# D N S' | S' N D M# G r S
A profound twilight raga of the Marwa Thaat. Defined by its unsettling Vadi of Komal Re (r) and the omission of Pancham (Pa), it captures the spirit of Tyaga (renunciation). Performable at sunset, it is known globally for its "Centrifugal" geometry that pushes away from the tonic, creating a restless, mystical atmosphere.

S R g P D S' | S' D P g R S (Mishra: +G, +n, +m)
A haunting midnight raga of the Kafi Thaat. Distinguished by its pentatonic core (S R g P D) and the artistic addition of chromatic "Mishra" swaras. It is the premier melody for Karuna Rasa (Pathos), known globally for its resemblance to the soulful intervals of Blues and Jazz ballads.
