The origin of Raag Desh can be traced back to the North Indian classical music tradition. Like many other raagas in Indian classical music, Raag Desh has evolved over centuries from ancient musical practices, Vedic chants, and regional folk music.
Raag Desh (Des) is a night time romantic Raaga.It comes from Khamaj That.Both Ni ie komal n normal are used.The use of all seven notes and both Nishads forces it to impinge on number of other raags such as Khamaj,Tilak Kamod and Sorat.There is strong tendency to perform Desh in lighter styles like Dadra or Thumri.Re is a very prominent,quite a few times a singer rests on Re,making it a center to the melody.The Meend(ie curve) from Ma to Re via Ga is one of the most vital features of the raag.Desh has been used in patriotic compositions Vande Mataram,the national song of India is well known.
Guda Double drum is made of hard stainless steel covered with black firm coating. First side has overtone tongues (main tone + octave tone) and Celtic minor tuning. Celtic Minor is a very popular scale, it is very universal, has good tone range (from deep lows to bright highs) and could be used in any style of music. Celtic minor is one of the most popular scale for handpans. Secon side has single tongues (for better articulation) and Raga Desh scale. Raga desh is a distinctive Indian major scale with mystical meditative feel.
Agra gharana doyen Faiyaz Khan (1881-1950) sings a hori in raag Desh. Traditional hori compositions celebrate the colourful environment that surrounds festivities related to Holi, the festival of colours. Set to Teentaal, Faiyaz Khan alternates between exploring the raag through free-flowing use of specific words of the song-text and a more rhythmic elaboration. The rendition is also marked by taans, but neither do these nor does his stentorian voice take away from the playfulness that the composition demands. In fact, they only add to the beauty of the performance.
