Patdeep Raag Description
This flittering lighter melody reflects eagerness implicit intrigue and separation pangs. Use of Nishad Shuddha in Raag Bheempalasi makes it Raag Patdeep. Vadi swar of Bheempalasi is Madhyam whereas Raag Patdeep has Vadi Swar as Pancham.
In Patdeep, Nishad is prominent in Aaroh, Pancham-Gandhar Sangati is observed, Nishad is sometimes skipped in Avroh from Tar Shadj (Sa’ D P) and Rishabh receives a Kan of the Shadj in Avroh. In Avroh, Dhaivat and Rishabh are extended as in Raag Bheempalasi. Aalaps and Taans are often started with Mandra Nishad. Following notes are illustrative of the Raag form:
