Learn Esraj & Dilruba Online
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 28 ก.ย. 2021
I fell in love with the Dilruba/Esraj over 16 years ago. There were no teachers around to learn from where I lived at the time. TH-cam was brand new so there wasn't much there either. I remember scavenging through the internet to find anything, something, or someone to learn from. Eventually, I was able to study with various teachers in the U.K. and India. So I created this channel to share with someone who might be in a situation like I was. Here I'll share the basics from what I learned and whatever else along the way. Hope you enjoy!

Dilruba & Esraj Course for Beginners Introduction message
i have just received my esraj and will try tuning it. very exciting!
🔥🔥🔥
Great man who is not an Indian is explaining the difference between two Indian instruments
thank you so much! i will get an esraj soon, i fell in love with it first time i heard it in a far away country and never thought i would be able to learn to play it, now thanks to you i'm sure i will!
Thats great to hear! Yes, if you feel that connection you must pursue it. Its a very special instrument and well worth the time you put into it. THE Value will come back to you many times over hahaha. I teach online as well an recommend taking at least one lesson to get going properly. Either way all the best to you!
Do both esraj and dilruba have the same tuning?
Yes, pretty much
Is this a violin bow???
This is a Cello Bow
Thanks brother thats very helpful plz can you make more videos of tuning in ragas like in guru granth sahib there is 31 ragas and 31 mix ragas can you make videos of 31 main ragas tuning in dilruba plz brother it's a request.....❤❤❤
I want to start learning esraj. Where can I buy an esraj?
I think Monoj Kumar is a good maker !
Watched this and I've settled on the dilruba, as much as I love the liok of the esraj. Are the frets set out in a scale, or in semitones like a guitar? wondering if I have to accommodate with tuning somehow if I want to play alongside a guitar or something.
You made a good choice with Dilruba! vth-cam.com/video/pJr1zUpUSoM/w-d-xo.html just look here regarding your question on tuning
@@learnesrajdilrubaonline1088 cheers mate, that video covered it really well. Really glad I found this channel, because most dilruba resources are in Hindi, and my Hindi is awful 😂.
very nice🌻🌻🌻
Thank you so much! 🙏
Thank you, Keith san, for your beautiful and amazing work!! The fusion of the Esraj and Dilruba🪷
Thank you so much Miki! It was awesome to work with you and looking forward to our next project!
Your funnel of your tar shehnai is amazing, what is the price (just the funnel) plz ?
I have no idea it was hand made for me along with the esraj so it was never itemized asa seperate price
Thanks for your clear explanations.Based on your experiences, which diameter for the first playing string and which for the resonance strings (made of steel) would you recommend for an esraj In your version?
You're welcome andthank you! Go here and go to the bottom and subscribe for the ebook as I talk about that and show a diagram on sizes and where you can get good quality strings in US keithbeber.com/courses/courses-dilruba-esraj-online-courses/
For how long are you Playing Esraj?? Im from Kolkata and recently started learning this..❤
Hi Friend, I started learning Esraj aroun 19 years ago but its been off and on. Im studyingseriously and consistently now. Im very excited tohave a teacher now
I started following your channel from the pandemic time when I started learning esraj. I like your tutorials and I practice with your videos often. Now I am also practicing esraj regularly and I feel very happy to follow the compositions of Pt Ravishankar. Please upload more videos like these.
When you say Monoj, there are two, Monoj Sardar in Kolkata and Monoj Mondal in Santiniketan. Which maker is this esraj from? The other question, are you able to reach and play comfortably the lower notes on the second string? Can you do a video on that please?
Yes mine is from Kolkata!
@@learnesrajdilrubaonline1088 What about my other request 🙂
Thanks for these videos! I just got my dilruba today tuned it up and started playing but my strings were buzzing. I'm guessing my bridge needs to be a little bit higher, but also afraid of the high pressure of the bridge on the strings and noticed some have a strip underneath the bridge. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.😁
Hi Jonathan, Its really hard for me to say without seeing and hearing the instrument. It could be a number of factors. I give online lessons on Whatspp +84 163 798 3174
@@learnesrajdilrubaonline1088 thanks for the reply, might check the lessons. I did see that there is a leather strip lightly visible under the main sound box skin to help support the bridge, so that helps me know there is more support.
@@Stallagmite Oh thats good you see that then yeah you should be secure in that area. Good!
Thanks for the lesson sir...
You're welcome!
वाह, बहुत बढिया
Thank you
You are welcome!
Thanks a lot
what is the importance of sympathetic strings?
It brings more resonance to the instrument. Wider sound with a longer sustain
@@learnesrajdilrubaonline1088 thanks for letting me know and awesome content my guy 💥
And your Guruji is Ustad Shahid Parvez!! I have heard him in concert in India but you are lucky enough to be his disciple...
Thank you, I dont study with him currently but thank you and yes it was a great opportunity for me
Fantastic explanation... All learners will find your channel very very helpful...
Thank you Sunayan ji!! I appreciate your kind words
Great
Thank you! 🙏
♥️
Where can I find the full version of this video? Seems like it was cut short for some reason.
This was short video I did covering the basics. If youre at this level then I suggest taking my beginners course 1 here at keithbeber.com
Beautiful
Thank you so much!!
Excellent
Thank you so much friend! 🙏
What about the rest of the strings? I need to tune my dilruba. Please do a vid on tuning all strings of the dilruba. That would be so cool.
Hi Doug, I already made a video covering that here: th-cam.com/video/Dq0MYXIjIlQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=fEiupW3kdyQJutw-
Yes I saw that but it doesn't show the notes like C, D, E, etc and the proper octaves.@@learnesrajdilrubaonline1088

Hey man, I am abit disappointed.. I tarted learning esraj from you.. Now your bodies are gone and you made a course to buy the lessons. What happened, you said you wanted to give back and share but now making a business out of it.. If you're going to charge, rather give personal live lessons don't do what everyone else is doing. You're better than that.
Hey Arjuna, I’m really happy to hear that you found the videos I posted helpful. Im sorry you feel the way you do but maybe you misunderstood my message and intent. Right now, I’m working to put together comprehensive content for a full beginner’s course for Dilruba/Esraj. Unfortunately, given the amount of time/resources it is taking me to consolidate this material - recording, editing , etc., it is very difficult for me to put all of the content up completely free on TH-cam. I solely live off of the money I make doing music. The amount I am charging for the full course is not steep. It is easily accessible and affordable for virtually anyone. When I was starting out I was absolutely thrilled when I found an online course back in 2006 and even went to the UK to continue my studies. I’ve always been happy to pay my teachers for their time and am still doing so. The small money I make from anything i do online is reinvested into my own personal lessons with my Dilruba teacher.
Nothing in life is free my dude. Old mate needs to make a living.
Amazing
Thank you
Was waiting for the second part thank you so much for posting it. Really nice to learn these type of composition please post more like this whenever you can. Thank you 😊
Thank you Friend! Please post a video of you playing the sthayi and 2nd line. Id love to see it 😀
PLease can you tell us what notes they are....A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and the octaves.
th-cam.com/video/pJr1zUpUSoM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=eKL-oxg29S5qTobZ
That's great thanks, I just got a dilruba for Christmas, it was all I ever wanted! This helped, I just need to go away and translate Ga Ma Pa into what notes those symbols stand for!
Yo should definitely get itabla pro app to tune your dilruba and to practice with tabla if you are playing Indian Classical music but even if not its great for tuning. Also I suggest to take the Dilruba beginners course 1 on my website as it goes over all the basics of left hand technique, bowing technique, exercises, tuning, how to change strings ect. keithbeber.com/courses/
Thank you for replying, I will have a look at your courses. I actually bought an estraj a few years ago in Sri Lanka, I fell in love with the sound. However it was a cheap estraj and difficult to tune and I have been looking at the dilrubas online for a while. this dilruba that I have got has got a few teething problems...the bow is dreadful and the main 4 strings were in the wrong places!! I have ordered a book and I definitely need a bit of advice and help getting it set up to 'sing' the bow is the first thing that I need to sort out so if you have any advice? It would be very much appreciated.@@learnesrajdilrubaonline1088

Very nice explanation 🎉 Thank God
😆Thank you friend 🙏
Tuning the wooden pegs is much easier if we use a tuning wrench. In my variant, it is just a piece of wood with a hole cut in a shape of peg's handle (which must be sort of flat, not a round one). I've learned to use it for my self-made Latvian folk instrument, Kokle (horizontal harp). Because Kokle has less body mass (usually made of pine wood), wooden pegs also influence sound. Metal tuning pegs (like those of modern guitar) are heavier, and thus muffle the overtones. The lighter, the better. Of course, I haven't been able to get Esraj for myself yet, so it is just an educated guess from my experience with the 4 Kokles that I have built.
Thank you for sharing that, yes I never thought of that,.. that the lack of weight can be better for resonance! Still Id have to say with 21 strings Id take a little less resonance than wrestling with wooden or plastic tuning pegs any day..
Nice
🙏Thank you Jhumpa! I really enjoy your playing!
Very nice can't wait for the second part. Excited to try this out.
Beautiful

Hello sir, what us the difference between esraj and dilruba in rhe context of sound.....
If youre just starting out and asking because you are thinking of buying one, I highly suggest to take my first course as I cover all of that in detail and play and demonstrate the difference in sound between the Dilruba, Esraj , and Tar Shenhai. Keithbeber.com . But in short a Dilruba has more strings so its a little more resonant than an Esraj. Because of the extra strings and shape of the sound box its a little more twangier and has a "boxier" sound producing a sound slightly similar to the sound of a Saxaphone....tendency to be a little more sharper in the upper frequencies. an Esraj has a more rounder sound a little more smoother, at least the smaller version.
Thank you for your reply......
