'''Brindavani Sarang''' or '''Brindabani Sarang''', also known as raga '''Sarang''', is a [[Hindustani classical music|Hindustani classical]] [[raga]]. It is also called '''Vridavani Sarang'''. This raga falls under the category of [[Sarang ragas]].

== Theory ==
Brindabani Sarang is a [[Kafi (thaat)|Kafi]] [[thaat]] [[raga]]. It was created by [[Swami Haridas]]. The associated mythology being that he brought Lord [[Krishna]] to earth by singing this raga who took the form of an idol which can still be seen in [[Mathura]].
One of the famous Ragas for the Sarang {{transl|hi|raagang}}, it is a popular {{transl|hi|raag}} of this family, together with Shuddha Sarang, and Madhyamad Sarang.
The name Brindavani Sarang is a testament to its popularity in the region around Mathura.

The notes ''Ga'' and ''Dha'' are not used in this raga.
A characteristic of all Sarang is the way ''Rishab'' (Re) is sung. The Rishabh is not accorded embellishments, so it is sung without any ''meenḍ'' of adjacent ''swara''s neither with any ''andolan''. This preeminence of Re makes the ''swar'' the ''vadi'' of this Raga as also for all other varieties of this family ({{transl|hi|raagang}}).

Another dominant phrase is Sa - Ni - Pa, also used in many other ragas, notably the popular Kanhada family.
The distinguishing factor being that the Ni in Kanhada's S-N-P takes a ''kaṇ'' of the Pa (of {{transl|hi|uttarang}}), with a {{transl|hi|ghaseeṭa}} effect, whereas the Ni of Sa-Ni-Pa in Sarang is rendered pure.

Brindavani Sarang's classification in thaat Kaafi is peculiar as it uses the shuddha form of "Ni" in its Aaroha, whereas the {{transl|hi|komala}} form of "ni" and "ga" is the main characteristic of the Kaafi thaat. So it is possible to make a mistake in identifying its thaat as [[Khamaj]].<ref>{{cite web |author1=Ramashreya Jha 'Ramrang' |title=The Sarang Family |url=https://www.parrikar.org/hindustani/sarang/ |website=Rajan Parrikar Music Archive |access-date=21 September 2019}}</ref>

This raga evokes the [[Sringara|sringara rasa]] - romantic love.<ref>{{Cite book|title=Shastriya Raag Darshan|last=Yagnik|first=Hasu|publisher=Gurjar Granthratna Karyalay|year=2013|isbn=978-81-8480-826-1}}</ref>

[[Avarohana]]: {{transl|hi|italic=no|S' n P M R S N S}}<ref>http://www.tanarang.com/english/vrindavani-sarang_eng.htm</ref>

=== Vadi and Samavadi ===

[[Vadi (music)|Vadi]]: [[Re (svara)|Rishabha]] (re)<ref>http://www.tanarang.com/english/vrindavani-sarang_eng.htm</ref>

[[Samavadi]]: [[Pa (svara)|Panchama]] (pa)<ref>http://www.tanarang.com/english/vrindavani-sarang_eng.htm</ref>

===Pakad or Chalan===
Ni Sa Re Ma Re Pa Ma Re Ni Sa

R M P n - PMR, M- R n S R-S

===Organisation and relationships===
[[Thaat]]: [[Kafi Thaat]]<ref>http://www.tanarang.com/english/vrindavani-sarang_eng.htm</ref>

=== Samay (Time) ===
Madhyanah (noon), Afternoon.<ref>http://www.tanarang.com/english/vrindavani-sarang_eng.htm</ref>

It is generally sung as Rajasthani folksongs.

===Seasonality===
It is generally regarded as a {{transl|hi|raga}} of summer season.

===Rasa===
Shringar Rasa: The Rasa of Romance. It creates a romantic and mystic atmosphere.

=== Related Raga ===
Madhumad Sarang has the Shuddha Ni dropped or Varjit (excluded).<ref>http://www.tanarang.com/english/madhumad-sarang_eng.htm</ref> It is still considered a chanchal raga.
Megh malhar has same notes but it is Dhrupad ''anga'' raga and is serious in rendering, with a lot of {{transl|hi|meenḍ}}. Another distinguishing factor is that while Rishabh is used extensively in Megh Malhar (as also in Sarang), the Rishabh there takes a very strong meenḍ from Madhyam (Me), a salient in the singing of ''meenḍ''-heavy Megh.
