Bhupalam (pronounced ''bhūpalam'') is a rāgam in Carnatic music (musical scale of South Indian classical music). It is a pentatonic scale (''audava'' rāgam or ''owdava'' rāgam). It is a ''janya'' rāgam (derived scale), as it does not have all the seven ''swaras'' (musical notes). It is also written as Bhoopalam. It is considered an auspicious scale and a morning rāgam.〔''Ragas in Carnatic music'' by Dr. S. Bhagyalekshmy, Pub. 1990, CBH Publications〕 In Tamil music, this scale is called ''Puranirmai pann'' and some ''thevarams'' are set to this scale.〔 This rāgam is played in the mornings before opening the sanctum-sanctorum of temples, using nadaswaram.〔 It is also used for chanting slokas, folks songs, Kathakali music and other rituals.〔 The equivalent scale in Hindustani music is Bhupal Todi.〔''Raganidhi'' by P. Subba Rao, Pub. 1964, The Music Academy of Madras〕 == Structure and Lakshana == ''Bhupalam'' is a symmetric rāgam that does not contain ''madhyamam'' or ''nishādham''. It is a symmetric pentatonic scale (''audava-audava'' ragam〔〔 in Carnatic music classification – ''audava'' meaning 'of 5'). Its ascending and descending scale (' structure) is as follows: * : S R1 G2 P D1 S * : S D1 P G2 R1 S The notes used in this scale are ''shadjam, shuddha rishabham, sadharna gandharam, panchamam'' and ''shuddha dhaivatham'', as per Carnatic music notation and terms for the ''swaras''. ''Bhupalam'' is considered a ''janya'' rāgam of ''Hanumatodi'', the 8th ''Melakarta'' rāgam, though it can be derived from 5 other melakarta rāgams by dropping both the ''madhyamam'' and ''nishādham''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bhupalam」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
