Assistance with bhajan notes

[Guest guest]

Om Sai Raam,

To all my sai brothers and sisters, I hope you are all doing well in Sai’s name and glory.

 

I needed to ask if anyone on here, would assist me or guide me in finding the

material needed. I have just started to learn to play the harmonium but I do

need a lot of practice and assistance. However, I was wondering if there is

some sort of booklet available for the notes for sai

yes"> bhajans or any bhajans available or maybe if you have a copy of bhajan

notes that you made up and would not mind passing this along. That would really

be good!

I am very enthusiastic about learning. Or if anyone of you on here do have notes

for bhajans played on the harmonium that can possibly email me or guide me as to

where I can find them –that would be awesome.

 

I thank you all and may Swami bless and guide each one of you.

Om Jai Sai Raam

 

I offer my most humble pranaams at thy lotus feet of the beloved Lord Sai.

Dear Radhey and all,

material about Sai Bhajans (sheets music and notes) is available

trough the following links:

 

a) 'Sanskrit bhajans and devotional songs in English and other

languages transcribed to Western-style sheet music, with tunes,

chords, text':

http://sathyasai.org/songs/sheetmusic/Default.htm

 

b) 'The Complete English Devotional Song Book contains over 500

pages of sheet music':

http://sathyasai.org/songs/sheetmusic/english.htm

 

c) 'The Chant Song Book contains 46 pages of sheet music':

http://sathyasai.org/songs/sheetmusic/chants.htm

 

d) Bhajanavali

'Chords in Indian music are not used in the same way as they are

used in Western music. Therefore this chord book must not be

considered as an authority in this field, but only as a helpful

transposition from an Indian setting to a Western one. It is a very

useful guide to learn how to accompany Bhajans for Westerners

unfamiliar with the Indian style of playing the harmonium. It can

also be useful to Indians who wish to understand the Western use of

chords in Bhajans.'

 

Harmonium study method - Bhajanavali with chords - Bhajanavali

without chords - Transpose disk (to change easily the tune of the

bhajan)
