Well Done edit

I have to commend the writers / editors of this page - good job with showing the Western modal aspects with respect to thaat. Gautam Discuss 01:06, 22 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Can you clarify difference between western mode & raga edit

Your concept of thaat is a musical mode in Hindustani music which always has seven notes is correct or "Indian ragas can be regarded as modes."(quote from a famous URL) is correct. Which one is correct because incorrect information in respective URL'S shows limited knoledge on Indian Culture or it will be taken as an attack on our Great Indian Culture.

That Colon edit

What comes after it?! All this talk about attacking the 'Great Indian Culture' is rather funny too. No one's trying to hurt your culture mate. (Y) 86.162.151.136 (talk) 23:38, 19 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

Error in musical diagram edit

The third line of the diagram is labelled Bhairav, but should be Bhairavi since it shows E. Apologies for not correcting it - I don't have software to let me do this. --Stfg (talk) 10:38, 27 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Another correction in the attached diagram: For the Kãfi thãt, Dha should be mentioned as normal Dha, not as Dha:b. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dperiwal (talkcontribs) 05:48, 1 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Further to the error in Musical Diagram Scale edit

The third scale diagram and sixth scale diagram show the similar type of notes.

Assuming the sixth scale diagram "Bhairavi" thaat notes are correct, then third scale diagram "Bhairav" thaat requires correction. The notes Ga and Ni are not flat (komal) notes but are natural (shuddh) notes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.157.161.63 (talk) 14:14, 15 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

difference in staff notation in relation to indian music terminology edit

Dear Active members what i observed is that the staff notation for bhairav notation compared to indian music which is described below(carnatic music - Maya malawa gowla raagam) has shown wrong i think. If I am right then please consent otherwise leave a comment for me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kkkameshwar (talkcontribs) 13:00, 22 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

Mode vs. Scale vs. Scale type edit

@Intellectualrunoff: Could you please look into finding and comparing reliable sources on the western equivalent/definition for thaat? I've seen sources equate them to modes. Others equate them to "scale types" or "parent scales" rather than just "scales". I believe "parent scales" (much like melas) are the most apt.

@Cpt.a.haddock: "Parent scale" does appear to be widely used.
