Sori (music)

Notes for the white string of a on a 25-fret Setar,tuned to C. Instrument has both koron and sori notes.

The sori (Persian: سُری) is a symbol that corresponds to a quarter step higher in tone in Persian traditional music.[1] It is written as a ">" sign, crossed by two vertical lines, and can be used like an accidental.

In the early 20th century, Iranian master musician Ali-Naqi Vaziri established this sign for the sori for use in written Persian music using standard western notation.[2]

Character representation of this accidental together with the koron microtone used in modern Iranian classical music were added to the Unicode standard in Version 14.0 as U+1D1E9 and U+1D1EA, respectively.[3][4]
