HamirKalyani from Bomblymlux by Harini Aswin
This track is set in the raga Hamir kalyani. It begins with an alaap-style improvisation. Then, it moves on to the tune of a traditional song from the Carnatic music canon, Purahara Nandana, composed by Muthuswamy Dikshitar. Towards the end of the song, we have a rhythmic improvisation, which then leads back to the main melody.
Here is an informal video recording of the performance. The audio in this video has not been mastered: https://youtu.be/691y5e8L-kU
