Alhaiya Bilaval
Alhaiya Bilaval is a Hindustani classical raga. It is the most commonly performed raga of a large group of ragas that are mainly based on a scale more or less identical to the Western major scale. For this reason, that scale itself is known as the Bilaval thaat. It is often simply referred to as Bilaval; although in the 17th century, Alhaiya and Bilaval may have been separate ragas. Alhaiya Bilaval is a raga in which M is the main key.
