Dhun In Bhairavi

Dhun In Bhairavi is a raga-based instrumental composition performed by sitarist Shujaat Husain Khan and tabla player Enayet Hossain. The track appears as the fourth piece on the album Sweet Melodies, released on April 10, 2010, under the Aimrec label. The recording adopts the dhun format, a light classical or semi-classical adaptation of a raga, here rendered in Raga Bhairavi. The track spans 13 minutes and 10 seconds.

The album Sweet Melodies was issued in CD format. The collaboration between Khan and Hossain centers on North Indian classical traditions, with Khan executing melodic phrases on the sitar and Hossain providing rhythmic accompaniment on the tabla. The composition emphasizes the morning raga Bhairavi, characterized by its use of the komal re (flattened second) and komal dha (flattened sixth) in descent. No vocal elements or additional instrumentalists are credited in available documentation.

Shujaat Husain Khan is recognized for his contributions to the Imdadkhani gharana (Ettawah school) of sitar, while Enayet Hossain is associated with the Farrukhabad gharana of tabla. The album does not provide detailed session or production credits beyond the primary artists and label. The track’s structure follows conventional alaap-jor-jhala progression in instrumental renditions, though specific sectional timings remain undocumented.

The release date and label confirm the recording’s placement within early 21st-century commercial Indian classical outputs.
