Hariprasad Lekhani font -- for notation writing in Hindustani classical Bhatkhande style.

Hi,

Its long time since I posted... Recently we finished our flute program "Gurupournima Utsav " in honour of our beloved Guruji Surmani Shri Vivek Sonar. Lots of preparations went in. I did my possible bits towards the program. Everyone performed awesome and Guruji liked it.
Here I would like to gift to my Guruji my small effort towards making a font only to write notations. This is almost like a beta version but as my colleagues confirmed it does its job fantastically. So I thought I would share it. Some how I felt that naming the font with the name of Guruji's , Guruji,  Padmavibhushan Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia would make him happy. So I named it "Hariprasad Lekhani ".

Its created using http://www.myscriptfont.com . Thanks to them to make it easy for us.(I do not intend to breach anybody's copyrights). Thanks to my friend Dr. Himanshu Ginde for testing this and suggesting corrections.

The punctuation mark keys function as normal. Few keys are left empty and I will try to put some useful stuff in it, in the next version. For now here is the keyboard layout to use this.

Here is what the font looks like.

Jeena Yahan Marna Yahan - mera naam joker notations.

notations from Jeena yahan marana yahan from mera naam joker . These are from a book.
Lyrics:
Jeena Yahan Marna Yahan, Iske Siva Jaana Kahan
Ji Chahe Jab Humko Awaaz Do
Hum Hain Wahin Hum Thhe Jahan,
Apne Yahin Dono Jahan
Iske Siva Jana Kahan
Jeena Yahan ......

Yeh Mera Geet Jeevan Sangeet
Kal Bhi Koi Dohrayega
Jag Ko Hasane Bahrupiya
Roop Badal Phir Aayega
Swarg Yahin Nark Yahan
Iske Siva Jana Kahan
Jeena Yahan ......

Kal Khel Mein Hum Ho Na Ho
Gardish Mein Taare Rahenge Sada
Bhoolenge Hum Bhoologe Tum
Par Hum Tumhare Rahenge Sada
Rahenge Yahin Apne Nishan
Iske Siva Jana Kahan
Jeena Yahan ...

Ae dil hai mushkil jeena yahan.. ye hai bombay meri jaan notations

Lets begin...
Here is the song. Play and listen to the song and you should be good to play the whole song using the above notations.
Rafi :
Aye dil hai mushkil jeena yahan
Zara hat ke zara bach ke, yeh hai Bombay meri jaan
Ha haa, ha ho ho, ho hi haa ha haa
Hm hm hm hm, hm hm hm , hm hm hm hm hm
Aye dil hai..

(Kahin building kahin traame, kahin motor kahin mill
Milta hai yahan sab kuchh ik milta nahin dil) -2
Insaan ka nahin kahin naam-o-nishaan
Zara hat ke zara bach ke, yeh hai Bombay meri jaan

Kahin daaka, kahin phaaka kahin thokar kahin thes) -2
Bekaaro ke hain kai kaam yahan

Jo hai karta woh hai bharta hai yahan ka yeh chalan) -2

Yeh hai Bombay, yeh hai Bombay, yeh hai Bombay meri jaan

Aye dil hai mushkil jeena yahan
Zara hat ke zara bach ke, yeh hai Bombay meri jaan
Geeta:
Aye dil hai aasaa jeena yahan
Suno mister, suno bandhu, yeh hai Bombay meri jaan
Rafi:
Aye dil hai mushkil jeena yahan
Zara hat ke zara bach ke, yeh hai Bombay meri jaan

Welcome to the journey of Song Notations.

Hello,

The fact that you have reached this blog, could well be the reason that you love music to some extent. I welcome you to this wonderful journey of learning the art of Song notations. New songs will keep coming, and old ones will never die, so calling it a journey is appropriate. To be self sufficient we must learn this art so that no matter what sounds you listen, you should be able to derive its notations and play them. And here my least little contribution towards that.

I am not a music genius or guru, but I want to share with you my experiences, that I feel could help you. Just as biographies/articles of great musicians show us some directions, I want to share my experiences. Hope it helps you in some or the other way.

I am currently learning to derive the musical notations of songs. Its a difficult start, but I ensure you it isn't impossible. If you are not bothering about learning this art and just want to enjoy and amaze your friends/family by playing songs on your instrument, you are still in right place. Just use the notations and start playing.

As music is a journey, you might not find each and every detail in one go. Similarly, all I can do is help you, assist you in playing a song, rest all depends on your practice and listening. I request you to listen to the original song many many times, while playing the notations so that you will get the correct tempo of the song.

I will try to accommodate as many songs as possible and from different sources as possible. Your song may or may not be there in the posts. Please request the song notation that you want and I will try to get the notations. If you have some notations, do share them so that other will enjoy them...

Due to scarcity of time I am unable to format the notations properly and post them. But to begin with, I am just posting the pics of the notations from my book. Hope that will get you started in playing the songs.

Wish you happy musical journey...
Thanks
