Nat Bhairav (or also written as Nut Bhairav) (Hindi: नट भैरव) is a Hindustani classical heptatonic (Sampurna) raga of Bhairav Thaat. Traditionally it is a morning raga. It is one of the most important ragas of the Bhairav anga.
This raga is not be confused with the Natabhairavi, the 20th Melakarta of Carnatic Music. Sarasangi, which is the 27th Melakarta in Carnatic music, has the same scale as the Nat Bhairav in Hindustani music. In Western theory it is called the harmonic major scale.
