The Raga which is sung early in the morning is
- ATodiCorrect
- BDarbari
- CBhopali
- DBhimpalasi
Explanation
The correct answer is A because Raga Todi is a major morning raga in Indian classical music, typically performed during the second quarter of the morning. In contrast, Raga Darbari is sung late at night, Raga Bhopali is performed in the early evening, and Raga Bhimpalasi is sung in the late afternoon. The time theory of Indian classical music assigns specific periods of the day to different ragas based on their emotional quality and note structure.
