Harmonium practice tips

Set your root key (Sa) on Safed 5 (G). Notes marked with dot below (.N, .D) belong to Mandra Saptak (lower octave), while plain notes are Madhya Saptak.

Bansuri playing tips

For optimal pitch matching with the original song, use an G Natural (Medium) Bansuri. Notes marked with an apostrophe (') belong to Taar Saptak (high octave) and require tighter embouchure and faster air velocity. Lowercase notes indicate Komal swaras (half-hole covering).

Also suited for vocal riyaz — sing the swaras under each lyric line at a slow tempo.
