There is NO other channel on youtube that has put up tabla lessons in as good a fashion as you have. Not just that, the whole process is very efficient (subtitles along with you slowing down while playing). Plus, your explanation is very, very clear and the "teacher" in you is very likable. Thank you so much for all these videos! (Also, all the variations are very much appreciated! Thank you, thank you, thank you!)
@@TejSinghMusic Actually we need to say thanks to you sir!!! We look forward for some more classic Thalas ( rhythms)!!! Loads of love & respect with u sir!!👍👍❤
The sign of a good teacher is the ability to explain things in a clear and concise way and that is what you do, Sir. I was taught tabla years ago (before the internet and You Tube) and my teacher refused to discuss the "popular" tabla playing in film songs and bhajans etc. Your lessons have filled the gap. Thank you so much. You are an excellent tabla player and teacher. It would be good if, at some point, you could give analytic examples of how the taal, fillers etc.that you are teaching us here are used in a complete song. This would be great for the 'big picture' of how to play for song/bhajans. Thanks again for your excellent teaching.
Thanks for kind words. In old time,that was the trend not to teach Kehrawa, Dadra & Rupak at early stage. in 20th Century, lots of changes happend in our everyday life.. Very few Students have patience, time to learn Kaydas and Parans, Teehai. I teach Light Musical first then Classical. i personally believe if student loose interest in learning music, its failure for Teacher & Student. i will upload video for full song, bhajan soon. more like a practical demonstration.. Happy Learning!
Tej Singh I agree that it is better to teach light music first because that is what people hear most of their lives and some may desire to learn more and move on to classical music. Many of my friends knew I played tabla and once at big party I was surprised when they produced a tabla set and demanded that I accompany them while they sang songs. None of them knew anything about taal etc. so I did what I could, but as I was not taught how to accompany light music it was not quite right and people said that they could see I could play, but it was no good. I think quite a few tabla students experience this. When people know you play tabla, they expect you to play light music because that is all most people know, so I am not surprised that students lose heart after lots of kaiyda (etc.) practice without applying it to something like a song/bhajan . I wish I had your lessons back then as they would have made a big difference to my confidence. Tabla players are more likely to be asked to play light music than classical so it is good that you teach that first as it builds confidence. Thank you again for your generosity in imparting your knowledge and I look forward to seeing the full songs and bhajans with explanations.
Hello Tamoor.. i will suggest 1) Practice some Kayda specialliy Ajrada Gharana 2) there are some Kaydas to make left hand stronger 3) Learn under guidance of Teacher.. Happy learning
Tej ji, thanks for the effort you've put into these videos. I am in Melbourne, Australia and enjoy watching your detailed and well explained videos. Keep them coming. Best wishes.
Amazing Sir, I completely agree and appreciate your patience in explaining the minute concepts..proud to have subscribed to your channel. I look forward to many more learning lessons... wishing you the best wishes from India
Namaste Tej Ji. Thank you for all your valuable lessons. I just wanted to ask that the fast beat that you showed after 10th minute, Is it not a 6 beat cycle? I am confused. I am learning tabla on my own by watching videos on youtube. I am practicing Dadra taal at the moment.
hi Guruji .thank you very very much for ur lesson really r u a great soul.wish could lean tabla from face to face ,really it would be a blessing .everynight before going to bed i practice tabbla watching ur video.its a great joy.thanks lots
sir, your way of teaching tabla is very nice and is understandable easily. I'm learning tabla since 2 years and your videos helped me alot in learning tabla. I want to see your new videos soon
Tej Singh Sir, your lessons are a blessing. Could you please post a video on fillers and some universal ones that I can use for Sai bhajans? Thank you for all your hard work and dedication in posting these lessons.
Tej singh Ji , thanks for advise and suggestion I listened your bhajan cd...pls kindly explain "Aruna ramana " song beats especially rollings and fillers...possible kindly make video on this song...my HUMBLE request plssssss

I Sing Govinda Bolo & Girdhara Govinda. too . if time permit, i will upload videos myself singing but without Tabla Beats. so you and others can practice accompaning Tabla with bhajans
