*In [[Carnatic music]], [[Karnataka Devagandhari]] is the most similar raga, falling with Melakarta 22 (Karaharapriya).

==Behaviour==

The madhyam (fourth) is the most important note - an important 'nyaas' sthaan (note for rest) with emphasized elaboration around this note - S g M, M g M, g M P, M P g M P (M) g (M) g M...
The Rishabh (second) and the Dhaivat (sixth) are skipped in Aarohi (ascending) passages, but are given due importance when descending (Avrohi). Use of the Dhaivat and Rishabh is symmetric and both are approached via the succeeding notes (D from n, and R from g).g is taken with karn of m, n from sa.
E.g.-g=mg and n=sn

'''Abheri''' (pronounced ābhēri) is a [[raga]] in [[Carnatic music]] (musical scale of South Indian classical music). It is a ''[[Janya]]'' raga (derived scale), whose ''[[Melakarta]]'' raga (parent, also known as ''janaka'') is ''[[Kharaharapriya]]'', 22nd in the 72 ''Melakarta'' raga system.

''[[Bhimpalasi]]'' (or ''Bheempalas'') of [[Hindustani music]] sounds close to ''Abheri''.<ref name="ragas">''Ragas in Carnatic music'' by Dr. S. Bhagyalekshmy, Pub. 1990, CBH Publications</ref><ref name="raganidhi">''Raganidhi'' by P. Subba Rao, Pub. 1964, The Music Academy of Madras</ref>

== Structure and Lakshana ==
[[Image:Udayaravichandrika scale.svg|thumb|right|300px|Ascending scale with Shadjam at C]]
[[Image:Kharaharapriya scale.svg|thumb|right|300px|Descending scale with Shadjam at C]]
Abheri is an ''audava-sampoorna'' [[raga]]. Its {{IAST|ārohaṇa-avarohaṇa}} structure (ascending and descending scale) is as follows (see ''[[Swara#Swaras in Carnatic music|swaras in Carnatic music]]'' for details on below notation and terms):

*[[Arohana|{{IAST|ārohaṇa}}]] : {{svaraC|S|G2|M1|P|N2|S'|foot=yes}}
*[[Avarohana|{{IAST|avarohaṇa}}]] : {{svaraC|S'|N2|D2|P|M1|G2|R2|S|foot=yes}}

[[File:Abheri.wav|thumb|Abheri]]

The ''[[swara]]s'' in this scale are ''Chathusruthi Rishabham, Sadharana Gandharam, Suddha Madhyamam, Chathusruthi Dhaivatham'' and ''Kaisiki Nishadham''.

There are some differing views on swaras in the scale of Abheri. It is considered a ''Bhashanga'' raga (scale has an ''anya swara'', that is, a note which is not in the parent ''melakarta'' raga, in this case ''Kharaharapriya'' raga), with introduction of ''Suddha Dhiavatham'' (D1) in some phrases of the raga.<ref name="ragas" /> A different view is that this raga is a ''janya'' of ''[[Natabhairavi]]'' (which has D1, ''suddha dhaivatham'', in place of D2), with D2 being the ''anya swara'' (external note).<ref name="raganidhi" />

This [[raga]] is closer to [[Bhagyasree]] as for Bhagyasree [[Gandharam]] is sung softly. Thus a subtle difference of [[Gandhara]] makes a listener to feel this raga as [[Bhagyasree]].

== Popular compositions ==
A very popular composition in ''Abheri'' raga is ''Nagumomu Ganaleni'', a kriti by [[Thyagaraja]], one of the three eminent composers in Carnatic music. Another well known composition is ''Bhajare Re Manasa'', a kriti composed by [[Mysore Vasudevachar]] ''Gokula-nilaya krupalaya'' is also composed by [[Mysore Vasudevachar]]ya in the same raga. Ancient Tamil [[Sangam period]] poetry, '''Veral Veli''' by [[Kapilar]] was set to Abheri raga in [[Sandham: Symphony Meets Classical Tamil]] by [[Rajan Somasundaram|Composer Rajan]]. [[Muthuswami Dikshitar]] has composed ''Vinabheri'' in this raga. However, the scale used by Mudduswamy Deekshitar is different from the scale used in Abheri today.

There are many ''thukadas'' (or short songs, that are sung towards end of a Carnatic concert) composed in this raga of which ''Vellai Thamarai'' penned by [[Subramanya Bharathi]] is noteworthy. This raga has been extensively used in movie songs/ movie music. The most popular movie song in this raga is ''Aakaasa veedhilo'' from the old [[Telugu language|Telugu]] classic movie ''[[Malliswari (1951 film)|Malliswari]]'' (1951) sung by [[Ghantasala (singer)|Ghantasala]] and [[Bhanumathi Ramakrishna|Bhanumati]].

== Popular Classical Albums on this Raagam ==
An excellent rendition of this Raaga can be found in one of [[L. Shankar]] Albums ''Raga Aberi''. He received a Grammy Nomination for this composition.

== Related rāgams ==
This section covers the theoretical and scientific aspect of this rāgam.

''Abheri's'' notes when shifted using ''[[Graha bhedam]]'', yields 3 other janya rāgams, namely, ''[[Mohanakalyani]]'', ''[[Kedaragaula]]'' and ''[[Aarabhi|Arabhi]]'' (if we consider the Kharaharapriya-based scale). ''Graha bhedam'' is the step taken in keeping the relative note frequencies same, while shifting the ''Shadjam'' to the next note in the rāgam. In case of ''Janya'' ragams, only notes that occur in both ascending and descending scale are taken for this change. For further details and an illustration of ''Graha bhedam'' refer [[Graha bhedam#Example Illustration|''Graha bhedam'' on ''Sankarabharanam'']]. Abheri has close resemblance to Karnatakadevagandhari and Bhimpalasi. Whether they are essentially same is a matter of debate among the musicologists.
