Description
Poorvi thaat adds a Komal Dhaivat to Marva thaat. These thaat ragas usually feature komal Rishabh, shuddha Gandhar and Shuddha Nishad along with teevra Madhyam, the note which distinguishes evening from the morning ragas (dawn and sunset). The thaat raga Poorvi is deeply serious, quiet and mysterious in character and is performed at the time of sunset. Pictorial depictions in early texts, often mention the poise, grace, and charm of Poorvi.
Ragas
Ragas in Poorvi thaat include:
gollark: Emitters on drones.
gollark: *Two* emitters? Hmm.
gollark: As I said, why even bother with having a humanoid at that point? The only thing it needs is the emitter unit.
gollark: Just... have an AI generate holographic weapons on demand. Holographically generate knives directly in people or something. Holographically generate a giant wall on demand.
gollark: Not really. Why even bother making it human-shaped or whatever?
