Jaunpuri

Jaunpuri

Jaunpuri is a raga in Hindustani classical music in the Asavari thaat. Some experts like Pandit Omkarnath Thakur consider it indistinguishable from the shuddha rishabh Asavari [Rajan Parrikar, [http://www.sawf.org/newedit/edit06112001/musicarts.asp Asavari and associates] ] .

The name of the raga associates it with Jaunpur in northern Uttar Pradesh), but the structure may be Carnatic in origin.

The arohana is "S R m P d m P d n S' " and the avarohana is " S' n d P d m P g R S." It is usually performed in the late morning (9AM-12 noon).
