star trek next gen theme on sitar? Jan 23, 2004 02:02 p.m.

Hi,
anybody know the notes for the star trek next generation theme for sitar (the one with Jean Luc Pickard)?
(Yes, this is stupid, but good for a laugh when friends come over). My ear is not that good yet to pick up on it.

thanks,

Hey Remco,
I thought about that, then Ravi playing yankee doodle at a concert changed my mind! He also played a french song in Montreal that I forget the name for as well.

This is riyaz. I'm not too worried about people emailing me, I can be as nasty as you like-- I'll just add names to the spam filter.

Besides, it might help to bridge the gap for people who have no exposure to ICM.

I translated the opening monolog (. .these are the voyages. .) of the Originally series into Latin for my Latin students one time. They got a kick out of it.

Okay here ya go again. . .I tried to use an "*" for the "octave" dot but I couldn't get it to line up at all. . . . . . .so from the 1st G to the last S, all those notes are "dotted", ie higher octave

. . . . . . .I guess I'd better add (rather hastily) that all I can remember is the main theme, as I haven't watched TV in a long long time. . . . .but this should be enough to get ya started!

Heard some Ferengie's had a great deal on some overstocked sitars?

Thanks AJ,
that should get me going! I'll set my sitar on stun, and try to keep it out of warp :-)
