Indian music in incredibly complicated. In addition to all the nuances of major and minor notes, the particular style of playing them and the gharanas, Ragas are also associated with the time of the day. Take a look at this article for more information on this topic.

The theme of today's show was this association between Raga and time of the day. We played a series of tracks composed in Ragas that are associated with early morning, early afternoon, evening and late night. Take a look at the set of songs we played earlier today. Hopefully you enjoyed it.
