Ragamalika ("garland of ragas") is a virtuosic practice in North Indian classical music in which the soloist departs from the principal raga, or melodic mode, and whirls through a series of other, "foreign" ragas. These four pieces are all conceived in a fundamentally modal manner, broadly defined; each has its own basic melodic and harmonic coloration, influenced in varying degrees by actual or invented Indian ragas. Thus the whole set may be heard as a "garland of ragas."
