MALASHREE

Owners of a rich cultural heritage, Newars have different music for different seasons. There are 6 such tunes played for six seasons. Malashree is the tune played during autumn, usually after Indra Jatra marking the end of monsoon and onset of autumn. It is soft and melancholic.
However, it is not the tune for Dashain. It is just a coincidence that Dashain is one of the widely celebrated festival during autumn. And festivals are incomplete without music.
