rdf:langString Hameer is a nocturnal Hindustani classical raga nominally placed in Kalyan thaat. All the (shuddha swaras (natural notes) along with (teevra madhyam are used in it. Generally, its vaadi swar (the most used, principal note of a raga on which a pause may be taken) is dhaivat and the samavaadi swar (the second-most used important note assisting the vaadi swar) is gandhar. However, some exponents consider the vaadi swar to be pancham (G natural) as Hameer is mainly sung in the upper half of an octave and is nocturnal. Pancham is not taken in the aaroh but is taken in avroh. Its jati is "Shadav Sampurn". "Vadi Svar" is Dhaivat (Dh) and Samvadi Swar is Gandhar. The Carnatic raaga named Hameer Kalyani is similar to Hindusthani raag Kedar, not to Hindusthani Hamir. Carnatic music also has a separate raaga named Kedaram. As it happens, the Hindusthani raagas Kedar, Kamod and Hameer have fairly strong genetic overlap; in Kedar, madhyama is prominet; in Kamod it is Pancham; and in Hameer it is dhaivat which is most dominant.
