The glide to the upper C is never omitted in this râga. Another peculiarity of this air should be noticed: at the sign ‡ it will be seen that B is tied; the string is \*twice\* slightly deflected and shaken upon the fret, so as to sharpen the note to a degree less than a semitone, with a trembling effect. - [Previous: c9.199](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.day-1891.c9.199) - [Next: c9.202](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.day-1891.c9.202) - [Up: c9](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.day-1891.c9) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.day-1891.c9.201](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.day-1891.c9.201) · Pramāṇa
