b) Raag Malkauns

Raag Malkauns (A.K.A. Malkosh) is a very popular rag in the North Indian

system (Hindustani Sangeet). In the South it is known as Hindolam. It is a

pentatonic rag that has the five notes Sa, Komal Ga, Ma, Komal Dha, and Komal

Ni. One would think that with so many komal (flat) notes that it would have a

strong minor quality about it. However, upon close examination we see that the

absence of the fifth and the strong presence of the fourth causes the mind to

"invert" it. Therefore, it tends to sound surprisingly similar to Dhani to which it


has a murchana relationship. Malkauns has a long history, and it appears to have

undergone numerous changes over the centuries. It is said that Malkauns are

derived from Malav Kaushik. However, modern Malkauns have no resemblance

to this ancient raag. The mood is meditative, perhaps even sad. Therefore, it

tends to be played at slow to medium speeds.
