Swaras

Swaras is an app which generates Carnatic (South Indian classical) music phrases (without gamakams/oscillations) for different ragas (scales).

- Each tune is randomly generated, based on existing compositions and traditional phrases in that raga.

- Unique phrases which closely follow the character of the raga are generated using a predictive pattern matching algorithm.

- Numbers for Melakarta ragas are indicated.
