'''Lavangi''' is a [[rāga]]m (musical scale) of [[Carnatic music]] (South Indian classical music).

It is a ''[[janya]]'' rāgam (derived scale) of the 8th ''[[Melakarta]]'' rāgam ''[[Hanumatodi]]''.<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> [[M. Balamuralikrishna]] is credited with introducing it into Carnatic music and using this scale first for compositions.
His most popular kriti in this ragam is 'Omkaaraakarini'.

==Scale==

The Lavangi scale contains four swarams:

*[[Arohana]] : {{svaraC|S|R1|M1|D1|S'|foot=yes}}
*[[Avarohana]] : {{svaraC|S'|D1|M1|R1|S|foot=yes}}

==Origin==
The ragam Lavangi is derived from the [[Sanskrit]] word 'Lavang' meaning clove. Through the notion of a clove having four sectors, [[M. Balamuralikrishna]] built the raga to have 4 swaras, excluding the low sadharna as it is generic.
