'''Kāpi''' is a popular [[rāga]] in [[Carnatic music]], the classical music of [[South India]].<ref>{{cite book |title=Music in South India |url=https://archive.org/details/musicinsouthindi00visw |url-access=registration |last=Viswanathan |first=T. |author2=Matthew Harp Allen |year=2004 |publisher=Oxford University Press US |isbn=978-0-19-514591-5 |pages=[https://archive.org/details/musicinsouthindi00visw/page/44 44–51] }}</ref> ''Kāpi'' is a [[janya]] rāgam of ''[[Kharaharapriya]]'' with a meandering vakra scale. Typically performed at slow and medium speeds, it is capable of inducing moods of devotion, pathos and sadness in the listeners. ''Kāpi'' is different from the [[Hindustani music|Hindustani]] [[Rāga|raag]] and [[thaat]] ''[[Kafi]].'' The equivalent raag in Hindustani is [[Pilu (raga)|Pilu]].

==Structure and Lakshana==

Kāpi is an '''audava-vakra sampoorna''' rāgam with an ascending pentatonic scale and a descending scale with seven notes, but not in a descending order. Use of [[Kakali Nishadam]] and [[Anthara Gandharam]] make it a [[Bhashanga Raagam]].

*[[Arohana|{{IAST|ārohaṇa}}]] : {{svaraC|S|R2|M1|P|N3|S'|foot=yes}}
*[[Avarohana|{{IAST|avarohaṇa}}]] : {{svaraC|S'|N2|D2|N2|P|M1|G2|R2|S|foot=yes}}

The presence of different ''nishāda'' swarās (N2 and N3) lends a distinctive quality to Kāpi, along with the fact that it uses a set of vakra swarās (N2 D2 N2).

There is also a mild presence of shuddha daivatham (D1) that renders an invaluable feeling of devotion to the raagam. This, and the presence of [[Anthara Gandharam]] (G3) makes it difficult to pinpoint the exact nature of the avarohana of the raagam.

==Compositions==

Some of the popular compositions in Kāpi are:

* ''Jagadoddhārana Adisidaleshodaa'', ''Bannisi gopi''<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPbukrZQdSI | title="Jagadodharana"}}</ref> - [[Purandaradasa]]
* ''Mee Valla Gunadosha Memi, Intha Sowkhya'' - [[Thyagaraja]]
* ''Venkatachalapate Ninu Nammiti'' - [[Muthuswami Dikshitar]]
* ''Viharamanasa Rame'', ''Smarasi Pura'', ''Sree Madhavamanu'' - [[Swathi Thirunal]]
* ''Enna thavam seydanai Yashoda'' - [[Papanasam Sivan]]
* ''Bhaja maadhavam anisham'' - [[Mysore Vasudevacharya]]
* ''Maya Gopabala'' - [[K C Kesava Pillai]]
* ''Jaanaki ramana dasaratha nandana'' - [[Vanamaamalia Jiyar Swami|Vanamaamalai Jeeyar Swami]]
* ''Javo Mat Thum'' (Upaakhyanam) - [[Swathi Thirunal]]
* ''Chinnanchiru Kiliye (First two stanzas)'' - [[Subramanya Bharathi]]
* ''Kurai Ondrum Illai'' (''Two'' ''charanam'' ''verses'') - [[Chakravarti Rajagopalachari]]

* ''Charanamule Nammiti'' - [[Kancherla Gopanna|Bhadrachala Ramadasu]]
