Both [[classical music]] and classical songs, such as [[dhrupad]], [[kheyal]], [[tappa]], [[thungri]] etc are based on ragas. Ragas follow a set pattern of rising and descending notes known as &amp;#039;&amp;#039;r&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;galak&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;n&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;#039;&amp;#039;The singer introduces the raga through a brief &amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;l&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;p&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (prelude). The raga is then elaborated through four stages: &amp;#039;&amp;#039;sth&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;y&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;i&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (permanent, the first stage) &amp;#039;&amp;#039;antar&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (the second stage), &amp;#039;&amp;#039;sa&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;v&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;char&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;i&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (continuation) and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;abhoga&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (return to the first). Nowadays the process has been shortened, with the singer singing only the sthayi and the antara.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are three divisions of ragas: &amp;#039;&amp;#039;samp&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;u&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;r&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;n&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;,&amp;#039;&amp;#039; s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;ad&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;av &amp;#039;&amp;#039;and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;au&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;d&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;av&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;#039;&amp;#039;A raga with all the seven notes in ascent and descent is known as sampurna,&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;#039;&amp;#039;a raga with six notes in ascent and descent is known as sadav&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;#039;&amp;#039;and a raga with five as audav.&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;#039;&amp;#039;From these three main divisions there are nine combinations according to the number of ascending and descending notes. These are as follows:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;sampurna-sampurna &amp;#039;&amp;#039;(7 ascending +7 descending)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;udav-sampurna &amp;#039;&amp;#039;(5 ascending + 7 descending)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;udav- sadav &amp;#039;&amp;#039;(5 ascending + 6 descending)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Every raga has a propitious time for its rendering. The 24 hours of a day are divided into eight time segments, with different ragas being associated with different periods. The junctures between day and night are known as &amp;#039;&amp;#039;sandhiprak&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;sh &amp;#039;&amp;#039;time and ragas rendered at these times are known as sandhiprakas ragas. The other ragas are associated with the time of their rendering: morning, midday, evening and night. Thus bhairav (not to be confused with bhairavi) is a morning raga. Each period is dominated by a raga of some particular &amp;#039;&amp;#039;th&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;t&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. The raga that carries the suggestion of the next &amp;#039;&amp;#039;that &amp;#039;&amp;#039;and is rendered while gliding from one &amp;#039;&amp;#039;that &amp;#039;&amp;#039;to another is known as &amp;#039;&amp;#039;paramel-praveshak &amp;#039;&amp;#039;raga, for example, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;malgunji&amp;#039;&amp;#039;,&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;#039;&amp;#039;which belongs to the&amp;#039;&amp;#039; kaphi &amp;#039;&amp;#039;and&amp;#039;&amp;#039; khamiaj that&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. At times several ragas are rendered in a row. This is known as &amp;#039;&amp;#039;r&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;gam&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;l&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;#039;&amp;#039;and it gives the listeners a special delight. Ragas are also associated with different seasons. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Basanta&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, for example is associated with spring; &amp;#039;&amp;#039;malhar &amp;#039;&amp;#039;is associated with rains, as are its variations such as &amp;#039;&amp;#039;miaki- malhar &amp;#039;&amp;#039;and&amp;#039;&amp;#039; megh-malhar&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The use of ragas in Bangla songs dates as far back as the&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[charyapada]],&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;#039;&amp;#039;the songs of which were composed to be sung in &amp;#039;&amp;#039;vishuddha &amp;#039;&amp;#039;ragas. A fuller use of ragas is found in the later [[gitagovindam]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;#039;&amp;#039;and [[srikrishnakirtan]].

Even today these ragas are in use and are quite popular, though many have undergone some change of nomenclature. For instance, koda&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;#039;&amp;#039;is now familiar as &amp;#039;&amp;#039;kaunsik&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;n&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;ada&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Indian music is divided into North Indian (Hindustani) and South Indian (Daksini) music, with Bengali music generally following the North Indian style. However, many Bengali composers, including [[rabindranath tagore]] and [[kazi nazrul islam]], have introduced south Indian ragas into Bangla songs and have experimented with different ragas. Nazrul Islam not only popularized raga-based Bangla songs, he also created some new ragas and composed songs in them. Among the ragas he created are &amp;#039;&amp;#039;ve&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;n&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;uk&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, dolanch&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;np&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, devay&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;n&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;i&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, sandhy&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;m&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;lat&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;i&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, vanakuntal&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, m&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;i&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;n&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;k&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;si&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, yogin&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;i&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;#039;&amp;#039;and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;nirjhari&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;ni&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.
