Raga Information:

This morning raga is the representative of the Asavari That. The overall mood is perceived as either a sad raga or just a serious raga. Raga Asavari shares a very similar scale to Raga Jaunpuri, but Asavari has more simplistic flow and fewer notes in the aroha than Jaunpuri. Generally, most artists use suddha re for this raga. Some older artists, especially rudra vina players, use komal re instead. Thus, this raga is known as Raga Komal Rsabha Asavari.
