Top 10 Considerations when Picking a Harmonium

[@bigjuicypickles6822]

The coupler is essential when you’re playing the instrumental part of a song. Yes chording makes you look professional, but with the coupler, it makes the instrumental part of a song sound even more beautiful/ complex. Also you don’t need that much effort to push the pakka, chording and the coupler on. I have a pretty old harmoniam, so know this experience. So, the coupler is not “bling” it is very essential to the harmoniam

[@genghis_connie]

It's quite literally a harmony (an octave) of a harmonium. Agreed that it''s a very desirable option.

[@ahamadromen]

thank you, I am buying one for my son who is 8 years old, not sure what to buy from online. please give me some clue. Thanks

[@genghis_connie]

@@ahamadromen I'm looking online, as well. There is a dominant maker on eBay, but I've purchased all my instruments in person. Wish I knew which makers were reliable in the "affordable" range (trying to stay close to $300).

[@VoiceOfAsh]

What Daniel is playing is a superbly crafted harmonium. I just acquired one. It's Bhava by Old Delhi Music. They solved the coupler's alternative using a simplified solution. The air can be passed through two set of reeds. The first two stoppers control that. I believe the two notes are an octave apart. It creates the same effect as the coupler, and better, because coupler is a more complicated mechanism.

Hi Daniel, I just loved the way you play the chords and also your erudite style of presenting your Harmoniums. I wanted to purchase a GOOD harmonium here in India, but certainly found your video very informative to make an informed choice. Thanks for such informative video.

[@JohnDrewVoice]

Excellent information. Thank you. By the way, if you truly have an OCD ear, you'll likely find that a 432 Hz A is entrancing. While Herz or, as it was previously known, cycles per second is based on an arbitrary time measurement-the second-432 Hz is a fascinating number. It is a sum of four consecutive primes: 103 + 107 + 109 + 113. It is exactly three gross. (A “gross” was a traditional unit of measurement of 144 or 12 squared.) An equilateral triangle whose area and perimeter are equal has a square root of 432. These and other natural measures are associated with 432 Hz, and many claim that the frequency possesses more natural healing properties, which would seem a quality that would lend itself to Kirtan.

Thank you so much for posting this! I have been trying to figure out how to choose a harmonium, and there is little information out there. This is super helpful, and I will probably buy from you. Peace

Daniel you are a supreme teacher, I hope to sign up in the new year,Namaste, and thank you.

[@-BackToNature]

Thank you Daniel❤

[@acimlight]

Really helpful video as I enter into this arena. Makes me curious of the history of the harmonium...

[@daynadavis2467]

Thanks you so much Daniel! That was a fantastic introduction to the Harmonium and you explained everything perfectly! I have just found your FaceBook page quite coincidentally and I will be looking to purchase a Bhava harmonium myself in the near future. Thank You so much!

[@NayanaSavio]

Thank You Tucker for making such an informative video. 🙏

[@mauerbrecher2547]

I have just ordered a harmonium manufactured by a company called Maharaja Musicals. It has 42 keys, 9 stops, 2 reeds and a coupler. The website I ordered it from claims there is no lag in the keys, and it's tuned A440. I am going to use it to play Medieval European music, because it's cheaper and easier to play than a bagpipe or a hurdy-gurdy.

[@zenjon7892]

How was the quality? I'm thinking of getting one from them

[@thirdvect0r]

clearly not great haha

[@BenHayat]

Wow, what a fantastic video. I knew some of the points, but Dan brought up a lot more than I knew. Thank you Dan!

[@bmxking6582]

Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge. My wife wants a harmonium and seeing how they can be expensive I wanted at least a crash course on shopping for one.

[@radnahc1]

so which harmonium you reccomend

[@ananyadutta1154]

Your video was inevitably helpful, and many other videos on musical lessons are to me because I am truly unsophisticated in the arena, and "dhanyawaad" in both the Indian languages, namely Assamese and Hindi.

[@vibhor7903]

Thanks for the video. Your harmonium has awesome tone. Can you tell me the brand and model of that harmonium?

[@Life-Row-Toll]

QUESTION: on a harmonium [with no stops, suitcase style], what notes are produced when playing one key (e.g., C key)? I presume the harmonium produces C (in the pitch selected), it's octave (8th), plus it's 3rd or 4th or 5th or 6th; however, it would be great if someone can confirm what additional notes are produced when just playing one note (e.g., C)? Thank you.

[@Life-Row-Toll]

lol I watched the whole video, and my question has been answered. Thank you!

If you see the leak spot, cover it with some tape, like electrical tape. Or contact Nic Dillon at Old Delhi Music for more specific repair advice. Good luck!

[@ard108]

Hi Daniel, where do you recommend buying a harmonium from? I mean, manufacturer and shop

[@danielctucker]

Hey there, We carry two models of Bhava Harmoniums at kirtancentral.com/store - a classic Delhi-style double-reed kirtan harmonium, and a more portable "mini" version. All the best, -Daniel

Thank you. I am in the market for one. This was very helpful. The high reeds alone sounded a bit like a Magnus Chord organ! lol I would actually love the drone feature. How will I know if the Harmonium I buy has that feature or do most of them have it? Especially if I have to get it on line?

[@dkerwood1]

If I'm buying a used harmonium, how can I tell how many sets of reeds it has? Does each set have a stop? I'm looking for one as an alternative to my harmonica, and definitely don't want the same single reed tone that I already have.
