Hi Gopal,

ARR's harmonies and melodies are based on various scale systems from the West 
or raagas from India.  There are books on these scales and raagas if you are 
interested in theory.  Learning to play an instrument, as I have, is one of the 
best ways to learn about scales and raagas.  But, even if you don't play, you 
can still learn and appreciate.  ARR's knowledge of Western classical music 
really aids him in creating mindblowing harmonies, which of course, is part of 
his genius.
