Khayal, in Hindustani music, a musical form based on a Hindi song in two parts that recur between expanding cycles of melodic and rhythmic improvisation. In a standard performance a slow (vilambit) khayal is followed by a shorter, fast (drut) khayal in the same raga (melodic framework).

Yes, Khayal is indeed famous in Hindustani music. Khayal is a genre of classical vocal music that originated in the Indian subcontinent. It evolved from the older dhrupad style and gained popularity during the Mughal period. Khayal literally means "imagination" or "thought" in Persian, and it is characterized by its elaborate melodic improvisations within a structured framework. In Khayal, the singer typically explores a specific raga (melodic framework) with intricate ornamentation, rhythmic variations, and emotive expression. The performance usually consists of two main sections: the vilambit (slow tempo) followed by the drut (fast tempo), each showcasing different aspects of the raga. Khayal has become one of the most prominent and widely performed genres in Hindustani classical music, and it continues to be cherished by both musicians and audiences for its aesthetic depth and versatility. read less

This is Gurukool, Pune. I am the concept director who is passionate about research that may be scientific/ human or artistic. Right now I am in the quest building a musical drama called ISM-In search of meaning. It has taken about 2-years of continuous thinking to conceive and structure this drama. Needless to say it is for the inspiration of aesthetics and a quest for getting a step closure to the ultimate truth; The God. I wish to get contributions from all as to what they think about meaning whether in words, texts, poetry, music- both sound and silence. If you would please share some thought provoking questions in your mind or episodes or selective texts or some creative connections I shall offer by gratefulness at the very beginning. I wish this exercise fetches me at least 1000-ideas. Then it is in public domain.
