it feels like I am watching a DD National television show of 90s, Such detailed explanation and quality, and simplicity, the feel it has of 90s Doordarshan Surbhi and other serials..! AMAZING !

Great research. You are blessed by MATA SARASWATI and we are blessed by YOU. Pranam.

This is the BEST explanation of shruti I have ever heard. Thank you so much. I understand it perfectly now.

Absolutely correct.

I watched these videos in the hope of finding out why Indian music sounds strange to my Western ears (particularly all that ornamentation and notes often seeming flat) and assumed it was because you had a pentatonic scale or some such. Imagine my surprise when in the first three videos all the theory is exactly the same just with cool Hindi names for everything! Now the plot thickens with these shrutis and different tuning. My respect for Indian classical musicians only increases. That is seriously complex. And as a musician myself, I reckon I would get quite frustrated with the harmonium being used when it's completely the wrong tuning!

Indian classical music has been around since the 12th century onwards - mostly handed down through the "guru-shishya" arrangement. It takes more than a lifetime to master the intricacies and grammar.

The grammar and strict definitions or raags and taals were documented at this time. Music itself has been around since the advent of life itself.

@@saurabhjain9785 that's true. But when you present an argument, you must have something to back it up. That's the reason I safely mentioned the 13th century. I know that Indian music is much, much older.

Hi Anuja.... My dad has been listening to ICM for the last 40 years and is very very well versed with it. Our shelves are filled with cassettes of pt Bhimsen Joshi, Ustaad vilayat Khan, Kishori Amonkar Ji etc. He takes my family very often to concerts. Though I really don't follow and hence can't appreciate them fully, I enjoy listening to them. I wanted to start learning ICM only to understand and appreciate it. I came across your playlist and I just wanted to tell you that your lectures are so so so lucid. They do not assume any prior knowledge on the part of the learner, hence making it convenient for anyone to follow. It's almost 1 in the night now and I don't feel like putting my iPad down!! Thanks for all your effort and hope you continue to do this!!!! More than thanks I think you need congratulations!!!!

I love this kid. Born natural in the fine art of teaching and all the homework that entails it.

Love u Sister... thank god i found your tutorials.. entire KZread in channels of Harmonium i didn't found such explanative info. love u.great job.

As a common western/rock musician, this video series seems to be the perfect introduction to Indian music theory. Also, being half Indian, I feel like it's necessary for me to learn Indian music. Thank you Anuja!

अप्रतिम अनुजा ! गुरु कसा असावा त्याचं उत्तम उदाहरण आहेस तू ! मी गेली कित्येक वर्षं अत्यंत आवडीने शास्त्रीय संगीत ऐकते आहे आणि निदान ' कानसेन' होण्याचा प्रयत्न करते आहे.तुझे videos बघून पहिल्यांदाच त्यातले बारकावे - ज्याच्या शोधात मी किती काळ होते -उमगायला लागले आहेत.याबद्दल तुझे किती आभार मानू ? God bless you...

Your's is the best channel I have come across on internet to gather the knowledge about classical music. I was not so clear about shrutis before, you explained it in the easiest way possible. Thanks a ton and hats off!

You, my girl, are absolutely astounding. I sit with my son to watch your videos & understand with him the basics of Hindustani classical music. We simply love you explain the basics so well. Our Lockdown time is being well utilised. God Bless.

Yes, I'm at the right place, since yesterday I was looking for a portal for learning Harmonium and a few minutes ago I just clicked your video with a young face, with scepticism but your presentation and knowledge of the music hit me like the bolt from the blue. Awesome!

Absolutely fantastic. Though these are now maybe 5 years old but I was so happy to have found these. I never understood Indian classical music, and then all of a sudden my interest grew after listening to Ustad Zakir Hussain, and then on to Anoushka Shankar, Rakesh Chourasia and so on. But my big problem was loving the music but not understanding it. You have made it so simple and a person like me who no theoretical music can understand the fine art. Thank You so much, you are a very good teacher and also seem to enjoy doing what you do. The brilliance in your eyes shows it. Thank You.

You expressed very lucidly the concept of Shrutis . Kudos for your effort for popularizing Indian Classical Music in such a simple and clear way.

I am learing so much about Indian Music, I am so happy to find such a fine site.

I don't know why I smile so much while watching your videos . Video is over. I am still smiling.

Anuj you are owesome.I am a upsc cse aspirant and it helped me a lot for understanding music theortically and practically.And they you smiles and tell it makes it majestic.

Thanks Anuja for explaining the Basics of Harmonium in a simplest way. I had a chance to discuss few things about this with my friend a famous and great Harmonium player Shri Sudhir Nayak just now. You deserve appreciation. It is like a GAAGAR me SAAGAR.

thanks a lot Anuja.... I have waited for almost 2 years wandering here m there to develop at least basic of hindustani music but I never got relative stuff. I discovered u over u tube fortunately, u have described everything that I have wished to know... I thank u so much so so much that u brought such an educational video on hindustani music. m so thankful of yours...

U r the best music teacher on internet...! Thankyou so much....!

I could not control myself to say that I really appreciate your effort and liked your way of explanation.Way to go!!!!

Anuja Kamathji... So impressive and greatly narrated... RESPECT...

Wow- I am learning so much from watching your teaching! I feel so lucky to have found your channel! Thank you so much for creating these videos and for sharing your musical talent with such generosity!🙏

Happy that now I am in a position to explain to somebody what shrutis are all about. Tons of thanks.

Bht khooob ma'am, bht khoob Aap apne students ko understanding k jis level pe dekhna chaahti hain wo or aapki dedication bht reverence deserve krti ha. ❤️❤️❤️

You explain complex musical concepts with amazing ease and with absolute joy that transmits itself out of my LED screen. Thank you and God Bless You with a long musical journey.

Super work Anuja Kamat. You are explaining the Indian Classical Music just in the way today's generation would like to learn it. I have greatly benefited from your videos.Thank you so much and Pranam!

Some one sent me the link of your 3rd episode. I saw it and I am hooked. The concept of shruti has been explained so brilliantly yet simply. Not only (your) music, even the graphics and "handwriting font" , all add to the pleasure. Keep it up!

Your knowledge about music is superb, first time I realise that music can also understand through physics 😜. You have a great voice and your way of explaining the things of music is mind-blowing.

I am a beginner with Keyboard and this is very beautifully explained ..... I am amazed by your clarity and simplicity, while it is so visible - the aliveness and beauty that your musical practice has brought into you

Thanks Anuja . Your explanations are simply wonderful and I enjoyed them very much . i learnt so much and started appreciating Indian Classical Music .

Anuja , I have a 30 year old 11 scale Singh harmonium. plays perfect. I've been playing since 1985. I also have keyboards and tablas. My favourite keyboard that I have is the Roland E09IN , INDIAN EDITION .I am self taught on harmonium and keyboard . I learnt all chords since 1985 and can play Indian music in any style . I am amazed at your voice. Unfortunate that I am far away in South Africa . 🙏😘

Many years back, I read in a book that harmonium should not be used for vocal training,reason was not explaned but thanks to your video,after so many years I got my answer

Great work dear...May God bless you...and we want to see you as one of the famous and reputed singer in the world

Hey, random question: music recording and production is more reliant on computer software than ever these days, and the vast, VAST majority of that software is written by Westerners. I know that Native Instruments has made a Kontakt library of Indian instruments, but nevertheless they're designed to be mapped to a Western piano keyboard. Is this frustrating for non-Westerners to work with?

Anuja, u have very Easy nd smiling method of teaching music theory, superb job, keep going, God's blessings.

outstanding... you are a gifted teacher.

This is very helpful, thank you! The theory of swaras fits nicely with the Western music, but shrutis are a whole different thing, and now I finally get what they mean.

I truly love your videos! They are so interesting and also you smile is full of light :) Thanks Anuja!

Hi Anuja , you are awesome. Your way of teaching and your voice are very nice. Thanks for uploading these videos.

You look really cute & adorable Anuja 🌹❤️ Your vocal & know how of Indian classical is absolutely commendable Take care ..Stay blessed 💐

That's a great explanation. The same way when we say a phone operates on a frequency 1800Mhz/Band 3 in 4G, the upload frequency is between 1710-1785, and download is 1805-1880(high freq has high speed). Between 1805-1880 there are different channels. The width of channels can be 5,10,15 and 20Mhz between the Shruti. The space between 1785-1805 helps in noise reduction. Ref: halberdbastion.com/technology/cellular/4g-lte/lte-frequency-bands/b3-1800-mhz

Oh.. I never knew about 22 shruti's and also that about harmonium.. Thanks for the knowledge upgrade

Anuja: Harmonium episode was very nicely researched and expressed. Thanks

Big fan for ur way of explanation..and That excitement in your face💓

Your energy is just fab ❤ and such great info 👍

Great episode.....where are you these days Madam?? Not seen your new episodes....our learning has slowed down/stopped!!! Please restart soon.....

Very beautifully explained about harmonium n shruti . Thanks Anuja 😍

You are amazing! You have a gift of learning and teaching music.

Anuja,you are awesome.How minutely you explain things.Thank you so much

Anuja,you are fantastic!

I agree with a viewer--You are a gifted teacher

Good video. Speaks about the very basics of Indian music.

Extremely excellent. Explanation, You are great. I subscribed immediately.

That's quite an impressive intro, i must say!

I love your videos Anuja... thank you so much

Hi, Since you have covered this wonderful topic, Can You also cover the topic of Tanpura Tuning based on Ragas and its importance ?

mam... you are very talented and amazing teacher... you made music so easy to understand for me

Hello Anuja, waiting for more of your episodes, I think since long there are no additions, missing them, please inform, thank you and compliments for the beautiful work

Great explanation. Thank you Anuja!

Thank you! Your series is very enlightening.

Thank you so much for this lesson, it helped me a lot to understand the basics of indian music, please keep going with these lessons.

Enjoyable and clear presentation! Yet, I would suggest a clarification of terminology: instead of “natural tempered scale,” I would say “just intonation” or “naturally tuned scale.” This is because that scale is not tempered - which, technically speaking, refers to deliberately mistuning intervals as a compromise, which has been a norm in Western music for centuries - but instead tuned justly, without tempering.

I like your voice .... I m big fan i loved this voice....👌👌

Fortunate to have discovered your episodes 🙏👍

Salam to your efforts to teach music.
