Bilawal

बिलावल

Shuddh Bilawal is the namesake raga of its thaat, using all seven shuddha swaras and corresponding exactly to the Western major scale. Its bright, cheerful gait makes it a morning raga par excellence, though in practice Alhaiya Bilawal is performed more often than strict Shuddh Bilawal.
