Raag Lanka Dahan Sarang
Raag Lanka Dahan Sarang belongs to the Kafi thaat and is traditionally sung in the 2nd prahar of the day. It uses five swaras on the way up and all seven coming down, taking a vakra (winding) path rather than a straight line. Phrases centre on Shadj - the vadi, or king swara - answered by Madhyam as samvadi.
Swars: Gandhar and Dhaivat Varjya in Aaroh. Gandhar Komal in Avroh. Both Nishads. Rest all Shuddha Swars.

Sargam is written with Sa on C: komal swars are lowercase, teevra Ma is M̄, ʼ before a swar marks the lower (mandra) octave and Ṡ / ʼ after marks the upper (taar) octave. The synth plays plain notes - the gamak, meend, and andolan that bring a raag to life are what you learn in class with an expert.
