Comments – It would be best to describe this song as Kalyan-ish rather than a pure Kalyan. But I suppose this is to be expected from a film song.

Comments – This uses both Mas in a rather un-Kalyanish fashion. If you are looking to get a handle on Kalyan, don’t use this as a reference.

Comments – This is a good example of Yaman, at the same time it shows its versatility. Kalyan is almost universally used to show moods of either of joy, romance, or devotion. Yet this song very effectively uses it to invoke a mood of despair.

Comments – An interesting treatment of Kalyan. At times is shows a very clear Kalyan structure, but at times it just totally breaks the structure. For instance, at about a third of the way through the song, it descends chromatically from Pa through both Ma’s (i.e. Pa Má Ma). Not only does this break the rules of Kalyan, but such chromaticisms are very rare in Hindustani Sangeet and are generally considered forbidden for any classical treatment of the rags.

Comments – This song is particularly problematic. It contains the swar of both Yaman Kalyan and Bihag (i.e both madhyams.) It contains the pakad of both Kalyan as well as Bihag. Assigning this to either rag is a very uncomfortable proposition. We are somewhat randomly placing this in the Kalyan category. The music student should not use this as a guide to understanding the scope of Kalyan.
