Hamsadhvani (Sanskrit: \u0939\u092e\u094d\u0938\u0927\u094d\u0935\u0928\u093f, Tamil: \u0bb9\u0bae\u0bcd\u0bb8\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0bb5\u0ba9\u0bbf) also known as Hansadhwani, is a r\u0101ga in Carnatic music (musical scale of South Indian classical music). It is an audava r\u0101gam (or owdava r\u0101ga, meaning pentatonic scale). It is a janya r\u0101ga (derived scale), as it does not have all the seven swaras (musical notes).<\/p>\n

Hamsadhvani is also extensively used in Hindustani music and said to be borrowed into it from Carnatic music. It was created by the Carnatic composer Ramaswami Dikshitar<\/a> (1735-1817) and brought into Hindustani music by Ustad Aman Ali Khan of the Bhendibazaar gharana.<\/p>\n

Structure and Lakshana<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hamsadhvani does not contain madhyamam or dhaivatam. It is a pentatonic scale (audava-audava ragam in Carnatic music classification – audava meaning ‘of 5’). Its \u0101roha\u1e47a-avaroha\u1e47a structure (ascending and descending scale) is as follows:
\n
\n\u0101roha\u1e47a : S R2 G3 P N3 S
\navaroha\u1e47a : S N3 P G3 R2 S
\n<\/strong>
\nThe notes used in this scale are shadjam, chathusruthi rishabham, antara gandharam, panchamam and kakali nishadam.<\/p>\n

Hamsadhvani may be considered to be a janya r\u0101gam of Shankarabharanam, the 29th Melakarta r\u0101gam, although it can also be considered to be derived from other melakarta r\u0101gams, Sarasangi, Kalyani or Latangi, by dropping both madhyamam and dhaivatam. It is an elusive question as to whether Hamsadhvani is a janya of this or that melakarta. In Hindustani music it is associated with Bilaval thaat (equivalent of Shankarabharanam).<\/p>\n
