Khamaj Thaat

Mishra Khamaj

Mishra Khamaj is a mixed form of Khamaj incorporating both shuddha and komal Ni. It is widely used in thumri, dadra, and light classical music for its romantic and celebratory character. The interplay of both forms of Ni is its hallmark.

Raga Bhairavi is unique in that it is performed at the end of a concert — a tradition called "vidai" (farewell). Despite being a morning raga, it is used to close evening performances as a parting blessing.
