Varali or Varaali (pronounced varāḷi) is a rāgam in Carnatic music (musical scale of South Indian classical music). It is a ''janya'' rāgam (derived scale) from the 39th ''melakarta'' scale ''Jhalavarali''. It is a ''janya'' scale, as it is said to have a ''vakra'' scale (zig-zag notes) in the ascending scale.〔''Raganidhi'' by P. Subba Rao, Pub. 1964, The Music Academy of Madras〕 It is a ''vivadi rāgam''. It is the 4th in the list of 5 ''Ghana'' rāgams (''Nata (raga)'', ''Gaula'', ''Arabhi'' and ''Shree ragam'' being the others).〔''Ragas in Carnatic music'' by Dr. S. Bhagyalekshmy, Pub. 1990, CBH Publications〕 In olden times, this rāgam was called ''Varati'',〔 and is said to be more than 1300 years old.〔(Summary of the Raganubhava session on Varali on 13 February 2000 )〕 It is with this name that it is referred in old musical texts like ''Sangita Makarandha'' and ''Sangita Ratnakara''.〔 == Structure and Lakshana == ''Varali'' is an asymmetric rāgam due to the ''vakra prayoga'' in ascending scale. It is a ''vakra-sampurna-sampurna'' rāgam (''sampurna'' meaning containing all 7 notes).〔〔 Its ''ārohaṇa-avarohaṇa'' structure (ascending and descending scale) is as follows: *ārohaṇa : S G1 R1 G1 M2 P D1 N3 S *avarohaṇa : S N3 D1 P M2 G1 R1 S The notes used in this scale are ''shadjam, shuddha rishabham, shuddha gandharam, prati madhyamam, panchamam, shuddha dhaivatam'' and ''kakali nishadham''. The ''madhyamam'' used is said to be slightly higher than the ''prati madhyamam'', and is also called as ''chyuta panchama madhyamam'' (also referred as ''Varali madhyamam'').〔 For the details of the notations and terms, see ''swaras'' in Carnatic music. 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「Varali」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
