More about the music:
Shyam Kalyan (‘Evening Kalyan‘) is a prachalit Kalyan variant. Ga is used sparingly in ascent, and typically skipped in phrases which run through the scale sequentially, and shuddha ma is taken in descent only - while Re is emphasised throughout, and Pa is available as a resting note. As per Tanarang‘s summary, the raga is “a very melodious mixture of Kalyan and Kamod…one should render RMPNS rather than GMPNS, and Ni can sometimes be skipped in avroh“. It bears some resemblance to Shuddha Sarang, while being distinguished by the use of Ga in characteristic vakra phrases such as MPGmR and GmPGmR.
Pandit Premkumar Mallick is a leading exponent of the Darbhanga Dhrupad court music tradition, named for a former state near the Nepalese border. It is said that his ancestor once ended a drought in the area through singing the rain-bringing Raag Megh, and the family still live on land gifted to them by the Maharajah as a result. He often performs with family members including Samit and Ramkumar. Their style of Dhrupad is marked by intricate rhythmic elaboration and a lively approach to composed forms, as well as strong poetic influence.

Hari is sitting with Radha. The breeze is blowing. The wasp is making its humm sound. He has the flute kept onto his lips. Baithe (bai - tthey) means 'is sitting'

Thank you! Cheers!

[@ninad9569]

This raga is Shyam Kalyan or Shuddha Sarang??

[@SpeedFranklin]

Do the singers' hand movements have any significance? Or are they just feeling the music?

[@rhlc1915]

it's a combination of both. They are keeping time, in a rhythm called Chautaal, mixed with their own expression
