Metadata references

Release and credit references do not establish a raag or taal attribution.

Sources differ: Yaman influence and Khamaj are separately reported. RagaPedia has not resolved this difference or verified a multi-raag treatment of the recording.

Reported raag

Yaman

Not yet reviewed by a musician

A named writer on music analysed the song in this raag as an influence rather than a strict identity. This records what the source says; a musician has not checked the recording note by note.

Evidence: Named musician's analysis · Punit Jaipal Shah, doctoral thesis (Newcastle University), printed p.104 (PDF p.105), chapter 2, §2.6, example 4, Nām gum jāyegā, continuation after figure 2.8

Source wording: “Through these svaras in the Yaman framework, the singers express the philosophy that a person’s name is temporary, and it will definitely get lost in the realms of time sooner or later.” · Applies to: influence
