These video courses are a unique resource for adapting Indian Classical Music to the guitar. The knowledge I am able to present here is largely thanks to my Gurus Roopa Panesar and Shakir Khan who both play sitar. They have provided much of the raw material and I have used my experience as a guitarist, teacher and sitar student to develop the techniques and stylistic choices to suit this beautiful and powerful style of playing.

Hey Jack! This was very informative. I have a question though - Is it safe to say that raga yaman is basically a D Lydian mode, with stricter rules on the direction of the notes, as opposed to playing any combination of the notes, as you typically do in western modes? Really eager to know more about ragas on guitar :)
@vipulmishra554

Also, shouldn't the defining note be G# here (or the ma note)? So what does this mean that ni, re, ga is a give away that the raga is yaman, as opposed to ma that should be the give away?
@JackJenningsGuitarist
3 жыл бұрын
First of all yes from a Western perspective it's basically a lydian scale with some rules of which notes you can use in the way up and down. In answer to your second question you would be right and saying that the #4 is the defining note in a lydian scale. But in terms of raags we can just look at different combinations of notes and identify that as a defining phrase. So in this case Ni Re Ga is the beginning of the ascent of raag yaman and the key notes in raag generally are actually Ni and Ga. This is what makes it such a typical phrase. Therefore in this raag so the #4th doesn't need to be included in a phrase in order to identify yaman.😀 I hope that answers your question, it needed a fairly detailed answer. Let me know if there's anything else it's you'd like to know?

@@JackJenningsGuitarist Thanks for explaining that. Would it also be safe to say that we don't have to restrict ourselves to the key of D in that case. I believe you're using D more for drone purposes unless I got it wrong. Can we expand this to let's say an A Lydian as well and use A as our drone or even G lydian and use G string as our drone? Thanks again for all your lessons on the raag. Immensely helpful!
So the bass e and a are tuned to d So can the strings be identical as in 3 d string . and also you say the drone is a d note correct
@JackJenningsGuitarist
3 жыл бұрын
No I would not recommend using three D strings, as in wound 4th strings. What I'm doing is essentially standard tuning but the low E and A have been swapped for high strings called Chikari strings like on a sitar. 6th D - 8. 5th D - 8. 4th D - 28. 3rd G - 18. 2nd B - 14. 1st E - 11 The top 4 strings are from an 11 set. You could use 10 set gauges
What is standard tuning for this guitar

But I find that the G-string works much better for bending if it's a thicker string. It actually allows you to get more pitch range before you run out of bending space on the fretboard. If you don't have the chikari strings then just 'drop D' tuning (DADGBE) will work to give you a drone. But you won't be able to play the chikari patterns.

I would suggest a guitar with a fixed bridge like a Telecaster or a Stratocaster with a blocked trem like I'm playing here. I also advise electric guitars that have more of a natural softer tone like Fenders.

There are free tabs for these lessons on my website www.playleadguitar.net/free-raag-yaman-course.html I am using a blend of Western and Indian theory here. The intervals 1st 2nd 3rd etc are Western and the Sa Re Ga is Indian. I don't include the notes name like C D E because that would be 3 sets of theory information which is perhaps too much to take in. But I am also telling you the fret numbers. So along with the tab/stave notation that's all anyone can do to help you to understand what is going on. The course is similar as it is based on learning the Sargam system on the guitar and it also has tabs and synchronised tab videos for each exercise or composition. Here is an example of that. kzread.info/dash/bejne/kYKA19awocm5nMY.html
