As Indian music lover in the United States, I appreciate you very much for explaining the learning process in English. There are millions of Indian music lovers around the world who don't understand the Hindi language but would love to learn in English. Thank you so much for being considerate for the rest of the world.

[@Jayabhadra1]

Thank you - I intend to follow your lessons so that I may gain some skill in playing harmonium - in this way I hope to enhance my bhajan . . .

I was trying to get some sequential and well organized lessons on the internet and was not able to find a good series. Your videos have solved my problem. I hope to learn harmonium through these tutorials. Thanks a lot for your efforts to spread the knowledge.

[@SchwarczRita]

when you press a note, why does the lower one go down as well? Can this be changed or is this with all harmoniums?

[@ShakticeceYogashtanga]

[@art-insights]

Is it important to buy a scale changer to start learning or regular harmonium suffice.

[@mrnikkxs]

Everything is upside down from a beginners point of view. Can you change the camera angle???????

[@NaamaHanegbi]

Thank you for clear and simple explanation

[@qasiryounas008]

What a great effort put in 💕💕

[@jorginejensen6211]

Please show the harmonium from above. It’s easier to absorb if it’s the way we would see if playing.. for us this is upside down.. so hard to find good lessons in English..

very well explained, clear, precise and right terminology.

[@amyduboismandarano3573]

Hello! I noticed that your harmonium, unlike mine, when a key is pressed, another key also lowers? Mine does not do this?

[@harmoniumvocalinstruction9972]

+Amy Dubois This is a feature that MOST but NOT ALL harmoniums have. This is called a coupler. Some harmoniums are coupled down (like mine) to the lower octave and others coupled to the higher octave. Make sure the coupler knob is engaged if there is one on your harmonium. Thanks for viewing....Indarji

Respectable Teacher I finally found the school I was looking for to learn how to play the Harmonium. Thanks to your generosity and kindeness many of us have access to this musical instrument. I would like to support with a contribution. Thanks a lot, elena

[@harmoniumvocalinstruction9972]

I have not accepted any contributions in the past. when this channel was created, I deliberately did not monetize the channel so there would not be advertisements. However, I am now planning another set of videos which requires a lot of resources (monetary and otherwise). If you are open to the idea of contributing to this please send me an email: [e-mail].

Thank you for a very detailed video, you explain very well , can you use these chords for the Hare Krishna Mantra?

[@harmoniumvocalinstruction9972]

+Trulia Investigations The chords that I show in videos 107 and 109 can be used universally for any type of music. I suggest you do the practice as given and you will be on your way to incorporating chords into your music. Thanks for viewing....Indarji

[@ਪਰਧਾਨਸਾਬ-ਬ3ਝ]

I am learning from a academy i have completed the theory to 7th chords with practical, but still i can't even find keys for songs

[@harmoniumvocalinstruction9972]

***** I will begin posting "Intermediate Level" harmonium lessons in the next six to eight weeks (hopefully) for those people who have progressed through my 100 and 200 series videos. I think those will be helpful for you. I urge you to do all my 100 and 200 series video lessons first and then, when I begin posting the other videos they should help with finding the keys for songs. Keep practicing until then....Thanks Indarji

[@ਪਰਧਾਨਸਾਬ-ਬ3ਝ]

thanks sir

[@devageepadayachee4434]

Pranams Guruji. Having watched the first video I feel hopeful that via your tutorials I can be a succesdful harmonium player. Gods infinite blessings upon you Guruji. Finally I can see the light.❤❤❤

[@Aveessh1]

Assam,India❤

[@shakond]

It is so helpful lesson with all the small details! I have never thought before I would ever find such a high quality instructor on KZbin. I feel I have found a real music guru in you. I would like to continue with your lesson. Please let me know if I need to make any subscription. Thanks and my best regards to you!

[@vvkarpur]

Sir, My question was if I concentrate for ex. on Black four saptak and do all the thaats and alankars on that for an hour at a time, take white six next time with the same procedure, then black five and so on will it help me ?

[@harmoniumvocalinstruction9972]

Vijaya Karpur That is a lot of practice. However if you have the time and can do that for all the notes IN ONE WEEK it would be less tiring. I do not expect you to do all in one day.

[@tabibhatti3573]

thank you sir

[@mithilabandara8322]

Very good introduction of harmonium for beginners.Thanks.

[@RajanSinghUK]

god bless you for helping me!

[@anniegray6994]

This is very helpful. How do I find lesson two with this isntructor? I like his style. THis is so helpful. Where can I find lesson two with this good instructor?

[@harmoniumvocalinstruction9972]

If you search "Harmonium and Vocal Instruction" the videos will come up

[@vvkarpur]

If some notes are only on black stripes it's very difficult to manage. Can you tell how to make it easy ? For ex. Raag Durga on black one or malkauns on black five. How to finger them ?

[@aftaabshabir8322]

I have just started and could you please tech me online I am going to lern Harmonium I have bought a Nagi Harmonium.

[@mymusicfun7682]

Very great and informative for the beginners. Highly recommended.

[@rubyvelvet2563]

Thank you sir.

[@kawalkaur7127]

I don't understand.

+Tabitha09 Send an email to [e-mail]. Thanks....Indarji

[@coolstoryari8538]

Thank you sir 🤎

[@zohraqainnaqvi2308]

Very good beginning

[@MSCS076]

Thanks Guru Jee, This is very useful series. I have a doubt though. You press the last note with your little finger. Where as I read that the little finger is not used in simple scales. Many other teachers start with the index finger and use thumb to play 4th and 8th note. Please explain. Thanks

[@srjumde54]

You explained very well, now I am planning to buy a harmonium online, how do I know that the harmonium I purchsed is toned right?

[@cantonmasti]

Hello Sir, I am very much interested to learn harmonium, I placed an order for Yamaha PSR I500 instead an harmonium, will your lessons work for it also?

[@harmoniumvocalinstruction9972]

The lessons will work for all keyboard instruments but the essence of Indian musical sound will be lost.

[@jainanupamjain]

your lessons are comparatively good, but .. pinky ??? think again !!!

[@harmoniumvocalinstruction9972]

Thanks for viewing. The pinky is used for piano and keyboard so why not the harmonium? Do you prefer using the other four fingers alone and have the pinky sticking out like a stepchild? I suggest you don't keep a closed mind when viewing my lessons because they are different to those of other teachers. The use of all five fingers becomes especially useful when chords are played in later lessons. In more advanced lessons, when playing scales in more than one octave the fingering is modified so that the pinky is not used. Don't jump to conclusions before trying the method given. If you think my lessons are "comparatively good", it means you have been viewing or using other methods. My advice to you is find a teacher and trust his method. Don't be "shopping around" because it will surely ensure zero progress. Please view this comment constructively and you will progress.......Thanks Indarji

[@cindymoodley6564]

Thank you so much now I want to learn the harmonium your teaching is really good

[@donaldpersaud8901]

Great job. Good of you to introduce timing right at the start.

[@jaden4935]

Are you trinidadian

[@AverageGuy513]

Thank you for teaching the patterns. Now I am able to correlate if I had to start with a different scale like Bb

[@anitadhawan9746]

Your super clear instructions, sweet enunciations and lovely way of this lesson has inspired me. My heartiest gratitude 🙏🏾. Good Karma your way Sir !

[@camistringaro]

Thanks so much! I am from argentina!! Wonderfull class

[@ramachilaka7758]

sir , in c major scale you are played 12312341 instred of 12312345 is it correct. i have seen keyto key board music book it is 12312341 please clarify doubt

[@harmoniumvocalinstruction9972]

Rama chilaka If you are playing one octave the 12312345 is used. In order to run the scale more than one octave the 12312341 is used.

[@ramesherrabolu1590]

Hi, I like the idea that videos are organized by difficulty level 100 - 200 - 300 - 400 - 500. I would like to know if they can be organized into playlists as well. This way users can look for videos at the right difficulty level. Regards, Ramesh

[@jayanthbv]

Sorry for the mis-type. And thank you for the information and quick response. We are all benefiting so much from your lessons, please continue doing. All the best and thanks again.

As per my capacity and free time I'll do it, no doubt. Roughly I've planned two saptaks and their chords per day . As you say it will take a week to complete all the 12 saptaks. Thanks.
