Raga Jaunpuri is a rāga in Hindustani classical music in the Asavarithaat. Some musicians like Omkarnath Thakur consider it indistinguishable from the shuddha rishabh Asavari.[2] Its attractive swaras also make it a popular raga in the Carnatic circles with a number of compositions in South India being tuned to Jaunpuri.[3]
The name of the rāga may associate it with places of this name, such as Javanpur in Gujarat, close to Saurasthra region and Jaunpur in northern Uttar Pradesh.[3]
(the notes used in this scale are shadjam, chathusruthi rishabham, sadharana gandharam, shuddha madhyamam, panchamam, kaishika nishadham and shuddh dhaivatam)
In the Carnatic circles, Jonpuri is considered a janya rāga of Natabhairavi, the 20th Melakarta rāga.
