Raag Bairari is counted as an uncommon and not a very well known Raag. In medieval times there is hardly any other raag which can be compared with this raag as far as the prevalence of number of varieties is concerned. This is a difficult raag. Only highly accredited singers can sing this with purity (correctly). This raag is very melodious. “Har Nirbhuau Nirvair Nirankaar” “Kaaea sarir basat hai” and “sarab sookh har naam vaddaaee |”all these shabads are in Raag Bairari . Also “Sant janaa mil har jas gaaeiou” which is commonly sung at the end of Diwans is in Raag Bairari.
