{{Hindustani Classical Music}}
Bhimpalasi or Bheempalasi (also known as Bhimpalas or Bheempalas) is a Hindustani classical raga. The Carnatic Music equivalent of this raga is Abheri.
Raga Bhimpalasi belongs to the Kafi Thaat.
Theory
- Aaroha: {{svaraH|'n|S|g|m|P|n|S'|foot=yes}}{{sfn|Bor|Rao|1999}}{{sfn|OEMI:BP}}
- Avaroha: {{svaraH|S'|n|D|P|m|g|R|S|foot=yes}}{{sfn|Bor|Rao|1999}}{{sfn|OEMI:BP}}
The raga has komal Ni and Ga. Rishabh ((re)second) and dhaivat ((Dha)sixth) are skipped in āroha (ascending) passages, but are given due importance when descending (avroha). Since the scale has 5 notes ascending and all 7 descending, the resulting jāti is Audav–Sampūrṇa. It is performed in the early afternoon, from 12:00 P.M. to 3:00 P.M. (the third prahar of the day).{{Cite web |last= |first= |title=Tanarang |url=http://www.tanarang.com/english/bheempalasi_eng.htm |access-date=2023-05-05}}
Use of dhaivat(dha) and rishabh(ray) is symmetrical in that both are approached via the succeeding notes (D from Ṉ, and R from {{SvaraH|g}}).{{SvaraH|g}} is sung with a kaṇ-svara (grace note) of M. Similarly, Ṉ is sung with a kaṇ-svara from S.
