🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
🙏🏼
I am a 32 year Man, with zero experience or knowledge in any form of music. However i have recently aquired a taste for indian classical music and i now have a strong desire to learn the Veena and Sitar. Should I pursue this, if yes were ,how and with which of 2 instrument should i start with. Please suggest 🙏
Thank you for reaching out. Sitar may be an easier instrument to start with, its less demanding on the fingers and body than a Veena. Having said that, there are different difficulty levels at which sitar can be learnt and played. Also, since Indian classical music is heavily based on vocalisation, it may help to learn a little bit of vocal along with sitar. It all depends on how much time you can devote to learning and practicing. Hope this helps. Best wishes.
@@Chandraveena Thank you so much for your guidance sir.
Nice ❤
Thank you 🙏
Enchanting music - Tq for the wonderful rendition… very meditative
Thank you 😊🙏
~ beautiful ~
Thank you 🙏
मै भी वीणा वादन सीखना चाहता हूं कैसे सिखूं

Hello sir once again . How can i express the sound of this magical instrument?! I have no words . I feel ashamed of this generation, people now a days prefer to listen usless and irrelevant. Music , the call shastriya sangeet boring. In such an amazing video you got only 25 likes , how is that even possible? I pray to the divine shakti shrre lalithambikai to bless you and make your videos achieve popularity that they deserve. Thank you
Thank you 🙏 do share and spread the joy of music. Best wishes.
Nice rendition !
Thank you 🙏
Sir what an instrument you have come up with. Got hooked, I am now feeling less with my sitar. How to buy and approximately what is its cost if I want to buy it for someone in the coming future! 🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@Chandraveena sure sir!🙏 It is very very very very unfortunate extremely unfortunate that the Indian classical heaven and this great instrument all lie somewhere in a dark corner of the internet with just a few hundred views. I want to work on this aspect. I think people have systematically kept it hidden because once if somebody gets into Indian classical then all the unimportant businesses which are many including bollywood will go bankrupt. They do not want it. We need people to propagate this music and I want to work for that.
Good to know you feel so strongly about Indian classical music. Get in touch with me directly, and we can discuss further. Best wishes.
Can you also please elaborate on the fifth instrument in the background from the left side of the video, kept beside the Tanpura?
Thank you for your comment. That is Sursringar - a fairly ancient instrument, belonging to the rabab family but modified to play with Rudra Veena. You can read more about it in my post here: sursringar.sadharani.com
Surbahar is a Big Sitar.
Ya, kind of. It was designed as an alternative to rudra veena for that kind of slow movement style - deeper and more resonant than a sitar.
@@Chandraveena Subahar is a Bass Sitar but I also refer to it as a Big Sitar because of its size & shape.
I want to learn this instrument
Write to me here: www.chandraveena.com/contact/
Are you trained in both hindustan and carnatic styles?
Thanks
Thank you for making and sharing this video. There is certainly something special about these instruments.
Do Subahars also have Various Jawari s??!
Yes, it's a personal choice and style of playing which determines whether one wants open or closed jawari - and anywhere in between.
🥰🙏
I am so obsessed with this vedio of yours that whenever I feel depressed or sad i come here to listen this wonderful music and calm myself ....... i thank you for uploading such an amazing amazing video pandit ji . May Devi saraswati bless you
Thank you Kapish 🙏
I have to say that chandraveena has something special about it . I feel blessed that i am able to hear the music of this divine instrument .. thank you so much for uploading this vedio
Thank you Kapish, appreciate your kind words🙏🏾its fans and patrons like you who keep us going!
Moving. Thank you🙏🏼👌🏼👏🏼
Thank you 🙏🏾
Still haven’t heard a more pleasant rendition of this raga!
Thank you for the kind words 😊🙏 you're always very encouraging and kind.
Wonderful 😊
Kindly share it's aroh avaroh atleast... To understand.....🙏
Sure. Aroha - Sa Re Ga ma Pa dha ni Avaroha - ni dha Pa ma Ga Re Sa
@@Chandraveena thank you
Where can I buy rudra veena
The strings really ring for a long time, like a Rudra veena. In Carnatic (Saraswati) veena concerts, one hardly ever has an opportunity to hear slow, meditative playing like this.
Thank you🙏 yes, the Chandraveena has been designed for long sustain.
Subhanallah
Vanakkam Sir, This is the first time I am hearing about this instrument and I am very impressed. Do you teach this? I also would like to learn Chandra veena. Will you please help me to find out a Guru? It's a very humble request
Vanakkam sir , I am a bharatnatyam dancer but I love to hear the music of string instruments ... sir it looks like a veena but at the same time it looks like a sitar too ... can u tell what is it ??? Please sir
Vanakkam Kapish, nice to know you. You can read all about the instrument, and my music on my website: www.chandraveena.com You're also welcome to write to me directly for any further information. Best wishes.
@@Chandraveena ok sir thank you
@@Kapish.k.narayanmurthi Sure, you're welcome. You can also read my blog posts - I've written about what, why and how of chandraveena.
Thanks for sharing wonderful details about these two great n divine instruments. 🙏
🙂🙏
Peaceful and divine melody, Bala. Thank you!
@@Chandraveena Doing well Bala.
वाह! क्या बात।
शुक्रिया 🙏
🙏🏽
🙏
A nicely calming and relaxing evening raga. Always a pleasure to hear the Chandraveena! ❤❤❤ 🙏 🙏 🙏
Beautiful deep tone
Thank you! 🙏
Price????
Impresionante !!!! Gracias a los dos 😃👏
Gracias 🙏
A beautiful Malkauns! Still have a few more to listen to when it works out, but love them all! 🙏 🙏 🙏
Thank you. Take your time Tim. Let the music soak in. Enjoy!
I don’t think I’ve heard Raag Desi before, but I do know I’ve listened to Desi Todi once. It’s so enjoyable to just listen and watch as a raga unfolds while I read and think about stuff in my room, like I’m doing this beautiful but cold morning. As always, the Chandraveena is a delightful instrument, and the pakhawaj in the composition portion provides another dimension to enjoy. I have seen Shri Sanjay ji before several times, not only with Balachander but also with rudra veena players including, I believe, at least once with Mohi Bahauddin Dagar sahab. He is very skilled and talented at the pakhawaj indeed. My many pranaams to both my friend Balachander ji and to Sanjay ji as well. ❤❤❤ 🙏 🙏 🙏
Thanks Tim for your very kind and wonderful words. In my opinion, Desi and Desi Todi are two different Ragas. It is possible that they're often incorrectly inter changeably used.
@@Chandraveena I agree. According to my history here on UA-cam, I have heard Desi before, by Vidushi N. Rajam on violin and by late Pandit Nikhil Banerjee on sitar. The Desi Todi was on sitar by Vidushi Mita Nag. I guess this must have been awhile ago, since I remember the Desi Todi but not the other recitals of Desi. I’ll have to listen to the other two Desi recordings again, especially Nikhil Banerjee’s, as a comparison to what you have done in dhrupad style.
@@papilot312 Sure. Let me know what you find!
@@Chandraveena I listened to Raag Desi by Nikhil Banerjee this morning, and while it was quite good-unsurprisingly-I think your version on Chandraveena is my favored of the two, probably because of my love for dhrupad and the sound of Chandraveena and pakhawaj.
@@papilot312 Oh my! Considering that apart from my Ustads, Nikhil has always been one of my role.models on what music should be like, your comment is an absolute honor. Thank you 🙏
So beautiful 🙏
Thank you 🙏
Do you sell veena? Where are you located?
I'm located in Mumbai. Pl write to me here: www.chandraveena.com/contact/
An excellent lecture and demonstration of the sitar, surbahar and Chandraveena with the similarities and differences clearly pointed out and explained in a simple way that can be easily understood. I enjoy all three instruments and have increased my knowledge about them with your teachings on them. I am not a musician but I love music from all over the world. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge and understanding with us! 🙏 🙏 🙏
I appreciate your encouraging words. Thank you very much. Glad you found it useful. 🙏
A lovely afternoon raga! Finally listened to it, and as always, am amazed! ❤❤❤ 🙏 🙏 🙏
Thank you 🙏
Lovely Raag Durga which I finally remembered to listen to due to the recent Durga Puja a couple days ago. Another beautiful rendition, Balachander sahab! ❤❤❤ 🙏 🙏 🙏
Thank you Tim🙂🙏
amazing to listen in a deep night . Thanks
Thank you🙏
beautiful bhimpalasi .
Thank you sir
Sir, what are your thoughts about Sagar Veena?
I think it's a wonderful instrument. I've heard it, I've read the report on it's construction. The artist, Noor Zehra has put in lot of effort in making and playing the instrument.
