'''Ramapriya''' (pronounced rāmapriya) is a [[rāga]]m in [[Carnatic music]] (musical scale of South Indian classical music). It is the 52nd ''[[melakarta]]'' rāgam (parent scale) in the 72 ''melakarta'' scale system of Carnatic music. It is called '''Ramāmanōhari''' in [[Muthuswami Dikshitar]] school of Carnatic music.<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:Ramapriya scale.svg|thumb|right|300px|''Ramapriya'' scale with ''shadjam'' at C]]

It is the 4th rāgam in the 9th ''chakra Brahma''. The mnemonic name is ''Brahma-Bhu''. The mnemonic phrase is ''sa ra gu mi pa dhi ni''.<ref name="ragas" /> 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|R1|G3|M2|P|D2|N2|S'|foot=yes}}
*[[Avarohana|{{IAST|avarohaṇa}}]]: {{svaraC|S'|N2|D2|P|M2|G3|R1|S|foot=yes}}

(the notes ''shuddha rishabham, antara gandharam, prati madhyamam, chathusruthi dhaivatham, kaisiki nishadham'' are used in this scale)

As it is a ''melakarta'' rāgam, by definition it is a [[sampoorna raga|''sampoorna'' rāgam]] (has all seven notes in ascending and descending scale). It is the ''prati madhyamam'' equivalent of ''[[Chakravakam (raga)|Chakravakam]]'', which is the 16th ''melakarta'' scale.

== ''Janya'' rāgams ==
''Ramapriya'' has a few minor ''[[janya]]'' rāgams (derived scales) associated with it. See [[List of Janya Ragas#Ramapriya|List of ''janya'' rāgams]] for full list of rāgams associated with ''Ramapriya'' scale.

== Compositions ==
Here are some compositions sung in concerts, set to ''Ramapriya''.

*''Saamodam Paripaalaya'' by [[Swathi Thirunal Rama Varma]]
*''Mahadevamanisham'' by [[Mangalampalli Balamuralikrishna]]
*''Smaramyaham sada rahum'' and ''Matangi Sri rajarajeshwari'' by [[Muthuswami Dikshitar]]
*''Korinavara mosagu'' by [[Patnam Subramania Iyer]]

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

''Ramapriya's'' notes when shifted using ''[[Graha bhedam]]'', yields no other ''melakarta'' rāgam, as such a step taken on any of the 6 ''swarams'' (Ri to Ni) comes up with scales that do not conform to the ''melakarta'' rules. ''Graha bhedam'' is the step taken in keeping the relative note frequencies same, while shifting the ''shadjam'' to the next note in the rāgam.
