Course Overview
Rhythm
Melody
Understanding these two systems, and how they complement one another, is very helpful when playing instruments. The North Indian system gives us an easy way to understand and identify the notes we are hearing, and the Western system gives us an easy way to apply it to the harmonium or any instrument.
You’ll learn how to use the North Indian system as a tool to play by ear, transpose melodies, and more. This information will also give you a solid foundation for understanding raga.
Harmony
It’s exciting to have the language of music open up the world of rhythm, melody, and harmony to you, and it will assist you on your journey with kirtan.
