Tanarang explicitly identifies Sur Malhar with Surdasi Malhar. Repeated Dha–Pa movements define its descent. The reference permits flexible performance in the rainy season; no fixed daily window is imposed. Notation: r/g/d/n = komal; m = shuddha Ma; M^ = tivra Ma; apostrophe = upper octave; comma = lower octave. These are phrase outlines, not complete performance grammar.
