    u have in ur stupid bank accounts

    so stop being a freeloading, smelly bunch of fucx

    and learn to donate to the world u fags

  • Namaste David,

    This is a great step you have taken to make Hindustani Classical more appreciable to those who are not quiet familiar with the basics which is Primarily the best and most studious task. My humble regards. Vande Bageswari.

  • Hello Chandrakantha garu, have you got any collection of your Christian Devotional songs? I played Tabla for you on a few ocassions in Hyderabad along with Paul Raju

  • Its very useful for people like me who do not know anything about raagas . It helpd me a lot now I think I can also learn and sing North Indian classical song. Please Mr&Mrs Courtney make some more videos for people like us. Thank you so much.

  • Nice video...

  • i try to play it on violin

    AMIT BHAT

  • Many thanks.

    I thought it is more common to refer North India as '' Hindustani', and south India as ' Caranatic' styles

  • You are correct.

  • How do Indian Classical Singers warm up and train their voices?

  • As far as I know in Indian classical singing practicing kharaj (or low notes) very early in the morning is very important for vocal fitness.

  • @haridarshana there are some specific patterns that must be practiced daily

  • @haridarshana We do exercises called Alankars which are patterns. They warm up the voice. Practice is called Riyaaz. In order to do the Alankars we first much find which Raaga we will practice on, get the Aroha (ascending scale) and the Avaroha (descending scale) and practice like this:

    1.SA RE GA MA PA DHA NI SA

    SA NI DHA PA MA GA RE SA

    2. SA SA RE RE GA GA MA MA PA PA DHA DHA NI NI SA SA

    SA SA NI NI DHA DHA PA PA MA MA GA GA RE RE SA SA

    Etc...

    I will message u a link with Alankars.

    Good Vid

  • the version i know is slightly different but I enjoyed the intro and basic instruciton. thanks.

  • Very nicely done. You guys are the best.

  • Oh yes there are many songs in the book ("Elementary North Indian Vocal"). They are all written in the sargam notation and there are both translations as well as transliterations of the lyrics.

  • HI, I found this video really helpful.I play harmonium and I started playing this song. I was wondering where I could go to learn more songs. Do I have to buy the book? I would love to buy the book but does the book contain notes for other songs as well?

  • the only thing is, how will i know what the song sounds like? does the book come with a cd of the songs so I can know how it sounds like?

  • Thank David for uploading your videos. Could you also include english translations to indian songs in subtitles? I'm not only like indian music but also learn hindi

  • I will keep it in mind.

    Peace

    David Courtney

  • Guru Ji Namaskar,

    I need to learn tabla. Is it possible to leran tabla by following VCD that is compiled by you OR i will also need a Tabla Guru to start. I stay in New Jersey.

  • Good luck with the Tabla. It is very difficult for me but I hope to be able to play well one day.

    Peace!

  • Have you had any luck with the Tabla?

  • Guru Ji,

    Thanks for posting this. I've been watching your youtube videos and I've been visiting your website frequently. Thank you for providing lessons on youtube. Do you offer lessons to distance learners?

  • Thank you for the kind words. I am not doing any internet classes at this time.

    peace

    David Courtney
