Vikrita Swaras
Vikrita swar are notes that are derived from the sudhdha swar. They are created by adding or subtracting a half step from a sudhdha swar.
There are six vikrita swar:
- Komal (flat) swar are created by subtracting a half step from a sudhdha swar.
- Teevra (sharp) swar are created by adding a half step to a sudhdha swar.
Vikrita swar are an essential part of Indian classical music. They are used to create the unique character of each raga.
For example, the raga Bilawal is a bright and cheerful raga that is often used for bhajans. It uses the sudhdha swar Sa, Re, Ga, Ma, Pa, and Dha.
