Nat Bhairav (or also written as Nut Bhairav) (Hindi: नट भैरव) is a Hindustani classical heptatonic (Sampurna) raga of Bhairav Thaat. Traditionally it is a morning raga. It is one of the most important ragas of the Bhairav anga.[1]
This raga is not be confused with the Natabhairavi, the 20th Melakarta of Carnatic Music.[citation needed] Sarasangi, which is the 27th Melakarta in Carnatic music, has the same scale as the Nat Bhairav in Hindustani music. In Western theory it is called the harmonic major scale.[citation needed]
