Raga Mohanam | Dr L Subramaniam | (Live at BCMF, Dhaka)

A beautiful rendition of Raga Mohanam by Dr L Subramaniam at the Bengal Classical Music Festival 2016, Dhaka.
Special Thanks to Bengal Foundation for getting this on the video.

About the Ragam:
Mohanam is a rāga in Carnatic music (musical scale of South Indian classical music). It is an audava rāga (or owdava rāga, meaning pentatonic scale). It is a janya rāga of Harikamboji (28th Melakartha Raga). However, there are disputes about Mohanam being the janya of Sankharbharanam also because all the swaras present in the Arohana and Avarohana of Mohanam satisfy both the melakartha ragas.

The equivalent of Mohanam in Hindustani music is Bhoop (or Bhopali). It is one of the common pentatonic scales across the world and is very popular in East Asian and South-east Asian music, including China and Japan.
