Sargam notes for song Suhana safar aur ye mausam hasee…

Singer: Mukesh
Lyrics : Shailendra
Music : Salil Chowdhury
Movie : Madhumati (1958)

Old is gold! This is particularly so true for old Hindi film songs, like this one.  Such a beautiful composition. 

I had been failing to jot down the notations of this song when I was trying to start it from Sa. Because, after that I was unable to play the Interlude parts.  I gave up thinking that this is not the one for which I’d be able to write notations.  But today, suddenly I picked Shuddh Gandhar (G) as the first note. And, that was it.  Puzzle solved.

I used C middle flute for producing these Sargam notations.  Hope you will be able to play these notes on your flute and other instruments.  Enjoy!
