Some types of music we immediately associate with a specific culture. Like if we hear bagpipe, we "conclude" its a scottish music. Japanese music also carries this stamp of idiosyncrasy. This thread is to discuss what kind of ragas we can find in different music cultures |

In one of BMK's album I heard him singing his own composition "Tanahitive" in Sudhadhanyasi. It had a good resemblance with Japanese music. I suppose there are others too like this.
I know that the pentatonic ragas are very popular in Hungarian music (like Sudha saveri, Mohanam).
I also read somewhere that Shanmukhapriya is not found in any other culture. How true is it?

Prof.Sambamurti in discussing the old raga Mohana said in some article that this scale is also found in Maori music.

I think some Irish music relies on some form of gamakas or quavers. There is some resemblance to Bilahari ( or is it Desaakshi ! ). Of course, the S'bharanam scale is pervasive in western popular music. It will be interesting to find out if any of the talam complexities such as viloma or chatusra eka are found in some of the Congolese or other African drum patterns.
