Rafi ... Madhuvan me radhika nache re from Kohinur is absolutely In Rag Hamir . Here ,the relevant question is what is rag? A rag is a melodious composition of notes . every rag has to obey certain principle ...... these are quite technical terms The moment it breeches the princple of the said raga ... we cant term that as rag .

If you are not satisfied with the answer ,please write to ...more

Classical is category,but with lots of styles and differnt ways. basic it starts with the sur i.e saa rey gaa maa paa daa nee saa etc. then there are the ragas. its the vocal scale and voice quality that it all depends on. in our country there are various forms of classical singing from all the parts of the country.
