Paḷkha has its own offshoot of Windermere music as well. Some styles that fell out of use in Talma are still commonly performed in Paḷkha, such as the song with intoning voice (''wălam yăthmear''). Paḷkhais in fact home to the composer Dăraf Ko, a leading composer of ''yăthmear'' songs today, some of which incorporate native Paḷkhan classical styles in addition to Windermere ones. | |||
