A Kafi Raga
A · C · C♯ · D · E · F♯ · G · G♯
Based on the North Indian raga Kafi, A Kafi Raga contains both thirds and both sevenths over a Dorian framework. Having both pairs available lets melodies bend between major and minor inflections, which is central to how the raga is performed. Rich material for slow, expressive playing.
Left-handed
