Dilruba - Aarti Tune

Tune: KAISEE AARTI HOYE Shabad , Raag Dhanasri, heard from Bhai Avtar Singh Ji's recordings.

Just practicing - thought I'd try making a video to upload.

NOTE: still a beginner - ( abt 3 years of 1ce a week lessons - and nowhere near as much practice as what my teacher says I should be doing :)

niicee. This sounds like Bhai Avtar singh jis composition. Have you heard it?

[manavk]

hunji - I first heard this from Bhai Avtar Singh Ji's CD (as mentioned in video description).

Only 3 years of playing?? This is beautiful! I love Raag Dhanashri, and the Dilruba portraying it produces a very colorful sound. Try posting, if you can, a rendition of the famous thillana/tharana in Raag Dhanashri

thank you - it's about 4 years now -

kindly point me to the link where i can listen to that composition - I'd like to hear it and will try playing it.

I wonder...

do you touch the string against the frets or only push the string when you are playing dilruba?

[manavk]

Hi

I push the string down so it's touching the frets - lightly.

Pressure on the string has to be just right to play accurately and be able to move around along the string quickly and smoothly.

Until I find a teacher, I am going to copy your playing. It is so gorgeous! What note is your Sa tuned to?

[beginnersmind0]

Man, That is about the most gorgeous thing I have ever heard! i am trying to copy it on my viola (a poor imitation) i hope to acquire a Dilruba and sound half as good as you do!

Where do you live brother? I have a dilruba and have been looking for a teacher for a long time.

[MrFranciscoFidalgo]

Is the instrument amplified?
