Sohini is a in Hindustani classical music in the Marwa . Alternate transliterations include Sohani and Sohni. Like Bahar, it is a small raga, with not much space for elaboration. It emotes the feel of longing, of passive sensuousness.


Technical Description
The raga is of audav-shadav nature, i.e., it has five swaras (notes) in the (ascent) and six in the . Rishabh (Re) is komal and Madhyam (Ma) is tivra , while all other swaras are shuddha. Pancham (Pa) is not used.

The vadi swara is Dha, and is Ga. The rishabh is weak, but Gandhar (Ga) is strong, unlike Marwa. It is an Uttaranga pradhan raga, with the higher notes on the (octave) being used more frequently.


Samay (Time)
Raga Sohini is associated with very late night / pre-dawn, the last or eighth period of day, roughly from 3-6AM. (3 AM - 6 AM) : 4th Prahar of the Night : Sandhi-Prakash Raag
