Desyatodi

Indian Classical Raga

Desika Todi is a janya raga of Hanumatodi, the 8th melakarta, omitting rishabha in the ascending scale. A raga with a similar name, Deshiyathodi, is associated by some with Yagapriya, the 31st melakarta, though the notes are the same. It is a rarely performed raga.
