The Hindi film industry, centred on Bombay, has given birth to a form of popular music that is global in its popularity, penetration and influence. The importance of song to the success of a Bollywood film cannot be overstated but, while the industry's 'music directors' (composers) and playback singers are celebrities in their own right, very few of the session musicians who record the instrumentals ever become known by name.
Manohari Singh was a rare exception and recorded under his own name, including one album inevitably titled Sax Appeal. His saxophone solo in 'Mehbooba Mehbooba' from Bollywood's biggest-grossing film of all time, the 'curry western' Sholay (1975) is every bit as well-remembered as Raphael Ravenscroft's saxophone in Gerry Rafferty's 'Baker Street'.
'Mehbooba Mehbooba' was composed and sung by Rahul Dev Burman and until Burman's death in 1994, Singh continued to complement the Sholay composer, feeding and realising his musical visions in the studio and in concert. Their last completed project together was the posthumous hit 1942: A Love Story (1994).

The month before Singh's death he joined Burman's widow, the playback star Asha Bhosle, on Indian Idol 5 for a Burman-themed special. Singh's contributions went further than being part of Burman's crack team of musicians and sound recordists. Asha Bhosle explained: 'Manohari could play a song in a different key without rewriting the notation. He knew every music part of thousands of songs by heart. [He had a] phenomenal memory.'
Historically in India, the saxophone had been largely associated with military and brass bands or western-style music, although the emergence of Kadri Gopalnath in the late 1970s made it more familiar to Indian audiences. Singh came to the saxophone as it was one of the instruments that his father played in Calcutta police bands. He also learned the western flute – often called 'key flute' to distinguish it from the bansuri or bamboo flute – and mandolin.
A versatile performer, Singh played with the Calcutta Symphony Orchestra and in jazz combos before moving, at music director Salil Chowdhury's suggestion, to Bombay in 1958. His big break came with Sachin Dev Burman's music for that year's Sitaron Se Aage. Sessions for other top-notch music directors such as Shankar-Jaikishan, Madan Mohan and OP Nayyar followed. Early acclaim came with his sinuous melodic hook for the duet in 'Tumhe Yaad Hoga Kabhi Hum Mile The' from Satta Bazaar (1959). Inevitably, he got to know SD Burman's son Rahul, eight years his junior, and so the seeds of a remarkable working relationship were sown.
Singh was renowned for being able to play whatever was put on his music stand and he was also adept at improvising. He remained in demand into his 70s, contributing, for example, to Chalte Chalte (2003) and Veer Zaara (2004).

Manohari Singh (8 March 1931 – 13 July 2010) was an Indian music director, saxophonist and was the main arranger of seminal film composer R. D. Burman. He along worked with Basudeb Chakraborty as music composers, the duo also popularly known as Basu-Manohari.
Early life[edit]
Manohari Singh was born in a Nepalese family in Kolkata. His father and uncle used to play in brass bands. In 1942, he joined the brass band at Bata Shoe Company, Bata Nagar in Kolkata, under its Hungarian conductor Joseph Newman. When Newman left in 1945 to join HMV, Manohari followed. From classical music, he started playing Hindi and Bengali songs for the HMVorchestra, since Newman arranged music for many composers like Kamal Dasgupta, S D Burman, Timir Baran and Ravi Shankar. He also played flute and piccolo at the Calcutta Symphony Orchestra. Through fellow musicians such as Francisco Casanovas, conductor at the Symphony Orchestra and band-leader at Firpo's Restaurant, George Banks, trumpet player at the Grand Hotel, and others, Manohari was introduced to the Calcutta nightclub scene. He had already tried his hand at the English key flute, the clarinet and the mandolin, but now he decided to learn the saxophone in order to be able to play at nightclubs.[1]

Career[edit]
When the conductor Joseph Newman left HMV in 1950 to settle in Australia, Manohari moved on to play at Firpo's with his own band. Urged by the music director Salil Chowdhury, Manohari decided to try his luck in Mumbai, moving there in 1958. His first break in the Hindi film industry was in 1958 with Sachin Dev Burman, as a saxophonist for the movie Sitaron Se Aage. He went on to play with many other music directors, his strongest association being with R.D. Burman, for whom he played the saxophone in many compositions. In addition to playing the alto saxophone, Manohari Singh was also the music assistant and arranger for R. D. Burman.
Memorable Hits[edit]
Among other notable works, Manohari played on the well-known hit 'Gaata Rahe Mera Dil', composed by S.D. Burman, from the movie Guide. He also played for songs in the movie Chalte Chalte and Veer Zaara. He also released an album titled Sax appeal containing saxophone renditions of various Hindi movie music tracks[2] Manohari Singh was said to deeply cherish his gold-plated Selmer saxophone (bought in New York City in 1969) and tried to avoid getting even his own finger-prints on it.[3]

Manohari Singh was felicitated at the Yashwantrao Chavan Natya Gruha (auditorium) on 19 March 2006, on the occasion of his 75 birthday.[3] He was also awarded with 'Memorable Contribution to Music Award' at the Tata Indicom Radio Mirchi Music Awards function held on 27 March 2009.
