Raga Khamaj is a very melodious raga. This raga has both the varients of Nishad (komal and Shuddha).
In purvang Gandhaar is dominent and in Uttrang Dhaivat is dominent. The phrase 'GmPD GmG' displayed the raga Khamaj.
If we use "S' PD, GmG" (not use Nishad), it will not affect the raga but if we go "GmPnPGmG" this will be wrong. It will become Raga Tilang.
This raga is performed at mid-night.
