Who brought the raga into Northern Indian music that is often sung or played in drut laya before a vilambit composition in raga Adana?
Adana (raga) Adana is an Indian raga. It is also called Adana kanada. It is often sung or played in drut laya after a vilambit composition in raga Darbari Kanada, as Adana is straighter than Darbari in its chalan, thus allowing faster passages. The flow of this raga is similar to a mix of Madhyamad Saranga with Darbari. Another common vivadi some artists use sparingly is shuddha ni which enhances the Saranga mood of the raga.
