Panchama Baradi (Odia: ପଞ୍ଚମ ବରାଡ଼ି, romanized: panchama barādi) is a rāga belonging to the tradition of Odissi music.[1][2][3] Falling under the meḷa of the same name,[4] the raga uses all twelve swaras and is traditionally associated with the karuṇa rasa.[5] It is said to be a composite of the ragas Panchama and Baradi.
Structure
An ancient raga, Panchama Baradi has been used by hundreds of poet-composers for well-over the past many centuries.[6] The raga is sampurna or heptatonic in its aroha and abaroha (ascent and descent). Its aroha-abaroha are bakra or nonlinear.
The raga dwells or does nyasa on the gandhara, as per tradition and evokes a solemn mood.[7]
