Raag Mian Ki Mahlhar

Raag Mian Ki Malhar is a khayal-based composition performed in the dhrupad-ang style of Hindustani classical music. The track appears as the second piece on The Generations Series – The Sabri Family, a studio album released on CD by Times Music in 2008. The recording spans 10 minutes and 25 seconds.

The performance features Sarvar Sabri on tabla, Suhail Yusuf Khan on sarangi and vocals, Sabri Khan on sarangi, and Kamal Sabri on sarangi. The ensemble presents a rendition rooted in the Malhar raga family, traditionally associated with the monsoon season in North Indian classical music. The composition emphasizes alaap-jor-jhala development followed by a structured khayal exposition, though specific lyrical or melodic details remain undocumented in available sources.

The album The Generations Series – The Sabri Family showcases the lineage of the Sabri gharana, a musical tradition linked to the seniya and beenkar styles of dhrupad. The recording session captures intergenerational collaboration, with Sabri Khan (1927–2015) representing the senior generation and Sarvar Sabri and Suhail Yusuf Khan contributing as younger practitioners. The label Times Music produced the album as part of a series highlighting hereditary musical families in India.
