Sunadavinodini is a symmetric rāgam that does not contain rishabham and panchamam. It is a pentatonic scale (audava-audava ragam[1][2] in Carnatic music classification – audava meaning 'of 5'). Its ārohaṇa-avarohaṇa structure (ascending and descending scale) is as follows (see swaras in Carnatic music for details on below notation and terms):
(notes used in this scale are antara gandharam, prati madhyamam, chathusruthi dhaivatham, kakali nishadham)
Sunadavinodini is considered a janya rāgam of Gamanashrama, the 53rd Melakarta rāgam, though it can be derived from 2 other melakarta rāgams, Kalyani or Kosalam, by dropping both rishabham and panchamam.
