c11.202

In No. 59, *Hamīrkaliān*, the sharp Sixth (A♯) appears. It is sounded very likely in others, but I could get no certain information. Similarly, the eight *Rāgs* with exceptional intonation given in Appendix II is probably not a complete list; they are merely those of which the true intonation has been preserved in one part of the country, Gwālior; at Calcutta, for instance, I heard of *Āsāvarī* (No. 28) as being of exceptional tuning, but of none of these; and Mr. Clements gives other instances from the Deccan.
