Raag Hameer Introduction
Raag Hameer, a short presentation
Key Features of Raag Hameer
Hameer uses both Ma’s.
Dha must be accompanied by a kan of Ni.
It is uttarang pradhan and chanchal in nature which means the raag is not developed with slow and steady phrases one swar at a time. It has many fast-moving non-linear phrases.
The veer ras or emotions of courage are likely expressed due to the inherent tempo of the raag and the treatment given to Dha.
Hameer contains the Kamod Ang in the form of the phrase G M R S. Care should be taken to keep Hameer from entering the territory of Kedar, Kamod, Chhayanut, Gaud Sarang, or Shyam Kalyan.
Mood: bravery, courage
Movement of notes: vakra and chanchal (fast phrases).
