Raag Kaushik Dhwani is the more popular name for the old Raag Bhinn Shadj. Although, Madhyam has a special place in this Raag, other notes have equal importance too. Which gives this Raag a large space for elaboration. This is a straight forward Raag and easily expandable in all the octaves.

The use of Gamak and Meend helps in beautification of the Raag. In Avroh, rendering S’ D in Meend seems more melodious then the straight forward S’ N D. This Raag creates a deep and soothing atmosphere. The following combinations of notes will clearly bring out the Raag mood –
