## What is SwaraGnana?

Swara Gnana is an essential app for students of Indian (Carnatic) Classical Music, designed to strengthen the ability to mentally map Sounds to Swaras (Notes) and vice versa. Through interactive quizzes and practice exercises, the app systematically enhances auditory perception and Swara recognition. It features five specialized ‘micro-apps’ accessible via a drop-down menu:
	• High-Low Quiz – Develop the ability to distinguish between higher and lower pitches.
	• Shruti Gnana Quiz – Train your ear to recognize microtonal variations (Shruti) within Swaras.
	• Swara Interval Practice – Internalize the spacing/intervals between Swaras through guided exercises.
	• Create Swaras – Identify Swaras on a circular scale to deepen your learning.
	• Swara Gnana Quiz – Test your overall Swara and Swara pattern recognition skills through engaging challenges.
With its structured approach, Swara Gnana serves as a powerful companion for students seeking to refine their listening skills and mastery of Indian Classical Music.
