Although a Hindustani classical raga is supposed to have at least five notes in both arohana (ascent) and avarohana (descent), Hindol is an exception. It has only four notes in the arohana, and five in the avarohana. Re and Pa are excluded completely. The only Teevra note used is Ma (henceforth represented by Ma#). All other swaras are shuddha. According to Indian Schools of music this raga has very gentle mood and represents loneliness and quiet joy and is to be performed in a dignified slow tempo T
