Raga Bageshri or Bageshree (IAST: Bāgeśrī) is a Carnatic classical raga. It is a janya raga (derived scale) of the 22nd Melakarta raga Kharaharapriya. It is meant to depict the emotion of waiting for reunion with one's lover. Being a very melodic raga it has gained popularity over the centuries. In Hindustani music, it is said to have been first sung by Miyan Tansen, the celebrated court singer of the Emperor Akbar in the sixteenth century[citation needed].
In modern days, people like the popular Hindi music director C.Ramchandra favour composing songs in Bageshri, as he found it simple. In a 1978 interview at BBC studios with Mahendra Kaul, he explained this, while playing songs like (Radha na bole – Azad, 1955) that were set to Bageshri.[3]
