'''Ratnangi''' (pronounced ratnāngi, meaning ''the one with a gem-like body'') is a [[rāga]]m in [[Carnatic music]] (musical scale of South Indian classical music). It is the 2nd ''[[melakarta]]'' rāgam (parent scale) in the 72 ''melakarta'' rāgam system of Carnatic music. It is called '''Phenadhyuti''' 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><br />
<br />
==Structure and Lakshana==<br />
[[Image:Ratnangi scale.svg|thumb|right|300px|''Ratnangi'' scale with ''shadjam'' at C]]<br />
<br />
It is the 2nd rāgam in the 1st ''chakra Indu''. The mnemonic name is ''Indu-Sri''. The mnemonic phrase is ''sa ra ga ma pa dha 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):<br />
*[[Arohana|{{IAST|ārohaṇa}}]]: {{svaraC|S|R1|G1|M1|P|D1|N2|S'|foot=yes}}<br />
*[[Avarohana|{{IAST|avarohaṇa}}]]: {{svaraC|S'|N2|D1|P|M1|G1|R1|S|foot=yes}}<br />
<br />
The scale uses the notes ''shuddha rishabham, shuddha gandharam, shuddha madhyamam, shuddha dhaivatham'' and ''kaisiki nishadham''. 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 ''shuddha madhyamam'' equivalent of ''[[Jalarnavam|Jalārnavam]]'', which is the 38th ''melakarta'' scale.<br />
<br />
== Asampurna Melakarta ==<br />
'''Phenadhyuti''' is the 2nd ''Melakarta'' in the original list compiled by [[Venkatamakhin]]. The notes used in the scale are the same, but the ascending scale is different.<br />
*[[Arohana|{{IAST|ārohaṇa}}]]: {{svaraC|S|R1|M1|P|D1|P|N2|S'|foot=yes}}<br />
*[[Avarohana|{{IAST|avarohaṇa}}]]: {{svaraC|S'|N2|D1|P|M1|G1|R1|S|foot=yes}}<br />
<br />
== ''Janya'' rāgams ==<br />
''Ratnangi'' has a few minor ''[[janya]]'' rāgams (derived scales) associated with it, of which ''[[Revati (ragam)|Revati]]'' is very popular. See [[List of Janya Ragas#Ratnangi|List of ''janya'' rāgams]] for full list of scales associated with ''Ratnangi''.<br />
<br />
==Compositions==<br />
Here are a few common compositions sung in concerts, set to ''Ratnangi''.<br />
*''Kalasavardhijam'' by [[Thyagaraja]]<br />
*''Tarunam ide'' by [[Koteeswara Iyer]]<br />
*''Sree Gurum Chintayaamyaham'' by [[Dr. M. Balamuralikrishna]]<br />
*''Janani Ashrita'' by [[Muthiah Bhagavatar|Harikeshanallur Muthaiah Bhagavatar]]<br />

<br />
==Related rāgams==<br />
This section covers the theoretical and scientific aspect of this rāgam.<br />
<br />
''Ratnangi's'' notes, when shifted using ''[[Graha bhedam]]'', yield two other ''melakarta'' rāgams, namely ''[[Gamanashrama]]'' and ''[[Jhankaradhwani]]''. ''Graha bhedam'' is the step taken in keeping the relative note frequencies same, while shifting the ''shadjam'' to the next note in the rāgam. For further details and an illustration, refer to ''[[Graha bhedam#Ratnangi|Graha bhedam on Ratnangi]]''.<br />
