Kalyan (thaat)
Kalyan () is one of the ten basic thaats of Hindustani music from the Indian subcontinent. It is also the name of a raga (more popularly known as Yaman) within this thaat. Description Kalyan thaat consists of an important group of evening ragas. Characterised by the teevra Madhyam, this thaat literally means good luck. Ragas of this thaat are considered to be a blessing-seeking and soothing. As a result, they are performed in the evening at the beginning of a concert. These ragas create a feeling of the unfolding of an evening. The Hindustani Classical Thaats are defined in their relation with the Bilawal Thaat, which has all shuddha(pure) notes.

Gaud Sarang
Gaud Sarang is a raga in Hindustani classical music that combines characteristics of Sarang and the now extinct raga named Gaud. Unlike most other members of the Sarang family of ragas, Gaud Sarang is assigned to the Kalyan thaat rather than the usual Kafi. The Indian National Anthem Jana gana mana is sung in the raga Gaud Sarang. It is believed that the National Anthem of India is in raga Bilaval, but it isn't like that. There is a certain svara which is changes the whole raga of the Anthem. In the national anthem, the Madhyama svara is employed. Raga Bilaval doesn't have the svara of Madhyama (obviously, raga Bilaval is the raga of all Shuddha Svaras and no other types of svaras). But raga Gaud Sarang has the Madhyama svara. So from this, the National Anthem of India, Jana gana mana is in raga Gaud Sarang. Theory Arohana: Avarohana An Avarohana, Avarohanam or Avaroha, in the context of Indian classical music, is the descending scale of any raga.''Ragas in C ...
