HOW TO PLAY HARMONIUM (WESTERN STYLE)

[@Anyportinastorm007]

Thank you for making this video, it was the most informative one I could find as a beginning harmonium player. Would love to see you make more of these in the future.

[@yogaphilosophyclub5708]

Thanks for the kind words, we made this video I think almost 5 years ago, still trying to get around to making the next one 🤣

This was exactly what I was looking for woohoo!! Thank you so much for the clear info. I have been getting overwhelmed in my learning

GOOD JOB EXPLAINING

[@tuongvypham4325]

Hi, Could you please do a full video of the song that you play at the end of the video? Sounds really nice… thanks for very useful instructions.

[@yogaphilosophyclub5708]

Thanks for the kind words, I’m going to start making videos again in the next few months hopefully and will keep your suggestion in mind 😊

On over-pumping: Sure, any player should be careful about this, but what about providing an internal relief valve that could bleed off excessive pressure? It could perhaps have it's own "reed" of sorts, that could just make an annoying sound (sort of like a "hey, idiot- you're pumping too hard!"-type of alarm sound).

[@porteal8986]

you can feel when the internal bellows is full when you feel more pressure on your hand, you will only over pump if you aren't paying attention

[@lilaclambs216]

Thats great. I learned a lot! I'd love to try playing a harmonium and the small size is a bonus

[@GrandmaMermaid]

I am an experienced keyboard and harp player and heard a harmonium on a ZOOM concert on a Saturday night and thought "I've got to get one of these!" Amazingly, there was one for sale for 1/2 price 40 minutes away. We brought it home and took it apart and cleaned it up. My son is addicted to it! Your video has shown us what we've been doing wrong on our own (pushing the bellows all the way in and out) and not knowing about the 45 degree angle for playing. What a lovely service you are providing! Our harmonium is KARTAR brand, 3.5 octaves, built in 1986. Love it!

[@yogaphilosophyclub5708]

Thanks for the kind words, glad I could help🙂

[@shimmybellydance]

This was helpful. Thank you. I am finding a lot of videos on chords and lessons, but not much on how to use the bellows to create what I'm wanting. I play piano, but this is brand new to me. I appreciate the simple tips!

[@yogaphilosophyclub5708]

You're welcome :)

[@सज्जनपुरुष]

do other culture other than indian play harmonium too in there traditional music, because i know its a western invention, i couldnt believe that it was not an indain version but i never heard it in different music tradition, i have no clue how it would sound, it always sounds indian to me

We no longer sell these harmoniums. But since ive made this video in 2017 many small harmoniums came about in the marketplace.

[@shorelinesupport]

what are you supposed to do when there's no sound coming out? How do you get it working again?

[@yogaphilosophyclub5708]

There could be many causes. Hard to say with the info you gave me
