Raga Explorer is your guide to the ancient world of Indian classical music. THE TIME WHEEL At the heart of Raga Explorer is an interactive clock showing which ragas are traditionally performed at each hour of day and night. Indian classical music has always been tied to time: certain ragas belong to the stillness of pre-dawn, others to the heat of noon, the romance of dusk, or the quiet of midnight. Drag the needle or tap the clock icon to jump to the current hour. EXPLORE 100+ RAGAS Browse a curated collection of ragas from both the Hindustani (North Indian) and Carnatic (South Indian) traditions. Each entry includes: • Aroha & Avaroha — ascending and descending scale • Vadi & Samvadi — primary and secondary notes • Rasa — the emotional essence the raga evokes • Traditional time and season of performance • Thaat / Melakarta family classification MOOD & RASA Ragas are organized by the emotion they embody — serenity, devotion, longing, joy, valor, wonder. Find the raga that resonates with how you feel right now. HINDUSTANI & CARNATIC Both great traditions of Indian classical music are represented, letting you explore the full breadth of this ancient art form. Whether you're a student, a performer, or simply curious, Raga Explorer opens a door to one of the world's oldest and most sophisticated musical systems.
