Raga shyam kalyan

Maestro’s Choice: Series One: Surbaha is a studio album by sitar and surbahar virtuoso Ustad Imrat Khan. The label Music Today released the recording in 1991 on CD as part of a curated series showcasing Khan’s repertoire.

The album features a performance of Raga Shyam Kalyan, rendered as the second track. The composition spans 29 minutes and 16 seconds, exemplifying Khan’s interpretation of the raga through the surbahar, a bass variant of the sitar. The recording captures the alap, jor, and jhala sections characteristic of dhrupad-ang gayaki, a style Khan championed in instrumental music.
