Raga MalkaunsAbout - Malkauns is a raga in Indian classical music. It is one of the oldest ragas of Indian classical music. The equivalent raga in Carnatic music is called Hindolam, not to be confused with the Hindustani Hindol.

Raag BhairavAbout - Raga Bhairav is a Hindustani Classical heptatonic (Sampurna) Raag of Bhairav Thaat. Traditionally it is a morning raga. In modern times, typically in Khyal Gayaki, it is usually performed as the beginning piece in concerts. It is the defining raga of its own Thaat. Kalingada in Carnatic music has the same scale as the Bhairav in Hindustani music.

Classical music is art music produced or rooted in the traditions of Western music (both liturgical and secular). It encompasses a broad span of time from roughly the 11th century to the present day. The two main traditions of classical music are Carnatic music, found predominantly in the peninsular regions, and Hindustani music, found in the northern, eastern and central regions. The basic concepts of this music includes shruti (microtones), swara (notes), alankar (ornamentations), raga (melodies improvised from basic grammars), and tala (rhythmic patterns used in percussion). Its tonal system divides the octave into 22 segments called shrutis, not all equal but each roughly equal to one quarter of a whole tone of Western music.
