CAPITAL LETTERS = Shuddh Swars (Natural Notes)
small letters = Komal Swars (Flat Notes)
M with # [hash] or ^ [exponent] = Tivra Madhyam (M# / M^)
Letter/Alphabet ONLY = Medium Pitch/Normal blow on flute
Letter/Alphabet PRECEDED BY a ” . ” [full stop] or a ” , ” [comma] = Low Octave Note/Softer blow on flute
Letter/Alphabet FOLLOWED BY a ‘ [single quote] = High Octave Note/harder blow on flute
Notes in { } = “murki” have to be played very fast without any pause
A Note in ( ) = “kann swar” has to be just touched before moving on to the next note
A “~” between two Notes = “meend”. That is, you have to glide from one note to another slowly to produce that wavy effect.
Few “….” (dots) after a note = Play and hold that note

Sargam notes for song Woh Sham Kuch Ajeeb Thi
Singer : Kishore Kumar,
Lyrics : Gulzar,
Music : Hemant Kumar,
Movie : Khamoshi (1969)
Raag : Yaman

Sargam notes for this particular song was requested by so many of you and for so long. But frankly, I was unable to put the blocks in places for about 2 years! Yes, it has taken me that long to try and fail, try and fail, and then finally produce sargam for this lovely song. Interlude and music pieces seemed so difficult to produce with the song. But somehow, I figured out to mix all three octaves to play this song on Bansuri. This song is based on Raag Yaman, if I’m not wrong and it features in the personal list of favourite songs of Kishore Kumar himself.

I have produced Sargam for this song by playing on A scale flute starting Sa at high octave (Taar saptak) with Kann Swar of Pa.
