SWAR-O-METRE

While practicing, my mind often innovates a device which gives an accurate measurement of Swaras . Whenever I perceive the uncertainty or some inaccuracies in the rendition of  swaras while practicing swaras, I often wonder that there should be an instrument 'swar-o-metre' which can scan our voice while we sing and accordingly judge the notes with the help of the markings made on it.  Let's start with the features of my innovation. The device 'swar-o-metre' should consist of the voice-track of all 22 shrutis (from where the Indian notes are filtered).  It should have all the markings from 1-22 shrutis,  like we have in a watch or any measurement device, a speaker (or a recording device), a scale system which examines different preferred chords (like we have in digital Ragini tanpura). According to the Indian Classical Music, there are maximum twelve notes which are essentially needed to materialise the classicality of  music. 12 swaras (se...

Naad Yoga

Music is considered as one of the ancient arts which is existing since the 'Satayuga'. In all the sacred epics - Rig, sam, purans upnishads, etc.,  It has been surveyed that people having interest in music has a kind of different attitude and behavior, which includes satisfaction, tranquility, and other positive vibes. In almost all the countries, music has been the source of worship,  as it expresses and connects you to your own religion or GOD. In India, we have our Gods holding Damroo (percussion instrument) and Goddess Saraswati holding Veena (string Instrument) which symbolizes that Music had always been a sacred means of Worship and relaxation or meditation.

The most important element in Music is ' Naad ' i.e., Sound. Naad is basically a Musical sound which involves melodic or asthetical soun...

Dependency faced in Indian Classical music

     My specialization is in Music and I'm pretty satisfied and proud to be in this field.Since my childhood i had a great interest in all genres of music. I am unable to memorize my childhood other than listening to Lata Ji's songs very desperately and grasped them very easily....even the minute and difficult variations she sang. I dont know to what extent I was correct regarding the notes. well I really enjoy music and I thank God that he gave this field to me and gave me power to understand tit-bits of even Indian Classical Music.These present hours, when everyone is rushing for MBA, Engineering, etc. and there is a jostling crowd in those fields, I ve an entirely different and peculiar one.Refreshing, heeling, rejoicing, heavenly.... I mean nothing like experiencing music.   But at the same time,I experience lot of problems specially in classical. For a solid &  proper taleem , you need an appropriate G...
