The pentatonic scale has a very distinct, instantly recognisable and pleasing sound that can be layered over many other chords and scales. For these reasons it is frequently found to be a key component of many popular songs.

How to take sapaat taan while singing Raag Bhinna Shadaj? I am having little bit of issues while coming back from taar saptak in speed. Although I have good command on speed when doing normal Riyaaz. Please help.
Hello Ishaan...I think you are having problem because there are jumping notes. Re and Pa are not used in this Raaga so, take the SapaT as you take simple ChhuT Taans. And try to keep the Daanas even. You will improve I'm sure. Best of luck!
