Yamunakalyani
Indian Classical Raga
Yamunakalyani is a janya raga of the 65th melakarta Kalyani, also known as Mechakalyani. It is classified as a sampoorna bhashanga raga because it uses shuddha madhyamam (M1) sparingly in descent alongside the parent scale's prati madhyamam (M2), and it is regarded as the Carnatic adaptation of the Hindustani raga Yaman Kalyan. It evokes bhakti, sringara and shanta rasas and is generally performed in the evening.
