    Shruti is a concept used in Indian classical music to refer to the musical notes that are heard rather than written down. It is often described as the smallest perceptible difference in pitch that can be perceived by a trained musician. The term is derived from Sanskrit and translates to "that which is heard" or "musical tone". Shruti is important in Indian classical music as it helps in tuning instruments, maintaining harmony, and expressing emotions in a specific raga (melodic framework).
