Among day Raags, Bheempalasi is a very sweet and hauntingly pleasant melody. The initial development via Alaap is done very artistically to produce the Raag mood which is then thrown into waves with Taans. The rendering of Komal Nishad needs practice with these combinations: g m P n S’ n S’ n S’ . Rendering this way will give the required higher shruti to Komal Nishad.
In Avroh Dhaivat is linked with Pancham (i.e. Pancham is used as a Kan-Swar). Like wise Rishabh is linked with Shadj (i.e. Shadj is used as a Kan-Swar). Similarly while rendering Nishad, adjacent Shadj is used as a Kan-Swar (in Meend) likewise Gandhar is rendered with madhyam as a Kan-Swar (in Meend).
This is a Poorvang Pradhan Raag. It is expanded freely in all the three Octaves. This Raag is similar to Raag Aabheri in Carnatic Music. Raag Dhanashree is similarly to Raag Bheempalasi, but Dhanashree has Pancham as a Vadi Swar whereas Raag Bheempalasi has Madhyam as a Vadi Swar.
