In Lesson 5 of the Indian Classical Vocal Lessons series, we practice Thaat Khamaj swar sadhana up to Pancham (Pa) of Taar Saptak, following the authentic Khamaj grammar:
Shuddh Nishad (Ni) in Aroh
Komal Nishad (ni) in Avroh
This structured exercise helps students clearly internalize the Khamaj thaat framework, which forms the foundation for many popular ragas such as Raga Khamaj, Desh, Tilak Kamod, Jhinjhoti, and more.
🎯 What this lesson focuses on:
Accurate aaroh–avroh movement of Thaat Khamaj
Smooth voice transition up to Taar Saptak Pancham
Strengthening pitch clarity while handling dual Nishad usage
Preparing the voice for Raga Khamaj–based compositions and bandishes
This lesson is ideal for beginners building strong fundamentals as well as intermediate learners refining raga grammar and upper-octave control.
🎶 Practice daily with tanpura support for best results.
