The research study is executed to identify the essential musical components that work behind the success of Hindustani Raga Music (HRM) renderings. It examines different performance components of HRM rendered in public concert situations. The traditionally prescribed parts of HRM performances and the music generated effects like raga mood, serenity, liveliness, surprise, and others in performances are also analyzed in the study. The objective of this study is to identify the musical components that are responsible for generating considerable impacts on the listeners. This investigation is based on the rating of different musical components by the listeners. Highly popular HRM festivals were selected for obtaining data. The findings successfully indicate that slow improvisations and traditionally accepted raga moods are the highimpact components for good acceptance by the listeners; also, the applications of high-speed components make the renderings outstanding.
