What he meant was that there are certain music compositions that can only be played well at a certain time of the day. I did not believe an ounce of it and I still don't. Wondering what you guys think..

Many Hindustani (North Indian) rāgas are prescribed for the particular time of a day or a season. When performed at the suggested time, the rāga has its maximum effect.
