      Access to knowledge is how higher castes keep the power in the family .

      @@jowlorenz9555 It is not about caste. Notation is followed in foreign countries that do not have castes. In modern days people of all castes have access to music. Notation and other systematic techniques help in learning and making music universal than limiting it to a cave man singing only on natural instict. If madam wanted to restrict access to musical knowledge, she would not have posted this video.

    Madam, identifying a particular swara depends on the scale in which we sing. You have not explained that. If you have sung the notes in C scale, it will be different in D or B scales, right? Ga in C scale will be Re in D scale. So these differences need to be explained.

      @Alpysf 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yep, and that’s why this video is BS. With music, you either have perfect pitch and during the process of learning the instrument you hear and recognize the notes on your own (without the need to do these types of exercises) or, you don’t, and therefore you literally CAN’T remember the note you heard in the first place, and when you can’t store that information, you won’t be able to do the exercises she mentioned and whatnot. In theory, this guideline would work, but IRL, you are either perfect pitch and don’t need it, or you’re not perfect pitch, and need to learn intervals (through many years of practice and experience) and with a baseline note (either if you have an instrument in hand, or with your own voice) detect the interval between the baseline note and the note you are hearing, and therefore calculate it this way.

    There is a difference between colours and notes. Colours do not have any reference frame but Swaras do have. To sing 'Ga' you have to know where the 'Sa' is, whatever the scale may be. Its like mathematics. If 'Sa' is 'X', then 'Re' is 'X+2', 'Ma' is 'X+5' etc. X is a variable here which changes with the Scales, but the formula remains the same, whatever the scale may be. Unlike western classical you don't have to know the scale first to identify a 'swara' or Note. But you just can't sing 'Ga' randomly if you don't know where the 'Sa' is.

      @nishendubaxi1128 4 ปีที่แล้ว +15

      Very true. Sound is wave frequency. Scale is changing frequency in a defined fashion. Therefore, Sa,that’s ones basic frequency, decides what Re,Ga etc are. The singer first establishes his Sa e.g. kali 5, safed 1. The upward scale is then determined as explained.

    • @randyzeitman1354
      @randyzeitman1354 4 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      Yes, quite a difference. (1) Most people can't identify absolute pitch so instead you have to hear intervals ... so 7 notes is not "just like" 7 primary colors, it's 7! ... seven factorial for all the combinations. The color analogy would be looking at a picture of a house or something with many different colors and being able to identify each color in the palette. (2) The brain gives far more processing to visual than audible. It's far easier to say something is dark or light green vs. high or low octave of a particular note.

    Perhaps you could initially start the exercise by using only the 7 basic notes irrespective of the scale. The semi tones could come later.. As you develop and practice your drills consisting of various combination of notes, you will notice your recognition of each individual note will get enhanced. There is no science for recognizing a note, you have to just drill it into your brain. Just like your parents and teachers drilled the names of various colors into your brain. Like learning a new language. Primary skill required is memorizing. Grammar can come later. That was my two bits worth. I played the sitar for many years.

      @@VoxGuru You are identifying intervals not notes. Sa could be C or it could be Bb. In your video you use note A for Sa.
      The way to really identify a note by a fixed frequency. So the standard for A today is today is around 440 (432-440) but A# is around 466 a muc bigger difference.
      You arbitrarily picked A so Ri and Ga are only relative.
      But Sa is not always A.
      So if you heard A it could be Sa or Ri or Ga etc depending on the raga.
      Sa is not a note, it's any note
      So if you hear A how can you tell it's A?
      That is very hard to do for an adult not born with perfect pitch however some people can train themselves by picking one note on a piano as their basic note like A or C. Then everyday you play this one note, let's say C on an organ in every octave singing at the same time. Then you practice intervals like you do in this video so first you have been playing that C every day in several octave everyday. It's around 259 to 264 (very small range). The standard keyboard will be 261.63. Then you know what the interval N ni sounds like and can identify A

    • @VoxGuru
      @VoxGuru  4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      You are right, all Swaras a relative to Sa. You can hear a drone sound in the background which suggests where the Sa is. If this Sa changes, then all Swaras will change accordingly. The concept of movable Sa is something that needs special attention so haven't covered it here in this video. But yes, I have identified Swaras relative to the Sa. In classical music we usually stick to one Shruti throughout so that is a good place to start before experimenting with multiple shruthis.

      @@VoxGuru Actually I liked the fact that you chose not to cover the relative placement of Sa and thus kept it simple. And loved the way you analysed the process of conscious learning, pattern recognition, etc. Being a graphic designer myself I could very well relate to the example of colour identification! As for tone identification in fixed frequencies- it's virtually impossible to gain pitch perfection at a later age. But then again, if one can learn to identify one major scale- like you demonstrated with A major- with a little more effort one should be able to identify at least 7 out of 12 notes- A, B, C#, D, E, F#, G#, and this holds true for no matter what ones relative Sa is, for example if one starts Sa at B flat s/he will learn a different set of 7 notes, but it'd still be 7 out of 12... now that's like almost 60% of the battle won- isn't it!

      The example of colour and the reference of a note don't match.
      Sa cannot be a defined colour.
      Her explanation does not mention this.
      We cannot hear a sound and call it GA or MA, without knowing the reference point.
      We can call the GA or MA as SA in the absence of a reference point.

    Awesome way of explaining. Of course step 4 goes over my head. It's been four years since I've been playing the keyboard and learning new songs but I can't identify notes in a song to save my life! My teacher gives me swaras I play. Sometimes she gave me games like ask someone to press a key on the keyboard and guess the note. Can't do that either.🙄

    • @TheGuruNetOn
      @TheGuruNetOn 4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      It's about habit. Since you got the swaras from the teacher there was no requirement to identify the notes by ear.
      One game is to try and identify a single note in your favourite song the base note of the song (for example the sama). Try different notes (high, middle or low) till you find the correct note. Then it gets easier as notes normally cluster around some important notes.
      Key is to play a game to figure out if a note is lower than previous one or higher? If it's higher how many notes higher is it? 1, 2, 3 notes higher? Similarly for lower notes. Many times the same note is repeated so it becomes easier.
      Keep doing this until you're able to play a short phrase in the song. Next you can try to identify other phrases till you get the entire song.

      There is a drone playing in the background which tells you where the Sa is. For beginners I always suggest that they select one scale and learn to recognize all notes on that scale. Once that is mastered, then changing scales becomes easier. Identifying Sa is a concept that needs special attention, hence it is not covered here.

      Not any sound can be sa, once a full melody is sung, the sa becomes clear. There are many factors that determine which is the sa, such as starting and ending note, pa and ga, but you dont need to theorize all that, its easier to hum along and the resolving note is the sa. You will need some pratice tough

    As to how to identify the notes of a song, I just pick a particular note, like moh in the song moh moh ke dhaage, play a series of notes on my piano to find a match. Then the same for the two notes of dhaa ge and so on. In minutes I can play a line of the song on the piano. But then the very difficult part is to know which is the Sa or Ga etc. Oh, I can say this is a C# or an E etc but then to figure out the scale is very difficult.
    I was trying to figure this out for the song Man Tarpat Hari Darshan Ko Aaj from Baiju Bawra. I found it uses a D Sharp (E Flat) minor scale but missing the notes to match the pentatonic Malkauns (Hindolam) raaga. Very painstaking process because I took piano lessons 30 years ago and have played very little since! 😁

    In theory this might be correct. But most people can not recognize notes by ear, as the brain can not restore the basic information of each note to later match it to the sound it hears. Some people, who are called “perfect pitch” or “absolute ear”, which are a very small percentage of the society do have this ability, and they can develop this skill during the process of learning to sing or learning an instrument on their own, and therefore don’t exactly need this structure of training presented in this video. For others, which are most people (including myself), this does nothing as it won’t exactly work past the first step. For us, we need to recognize different intervals (perfect 5th, and so on), and therefore when we have a base note, or an instrument available(including our voice), one could find a baseline note and by detecting the intervals from that baseline to the note we’re trying to recognize, and a bit of calculation, detect the correct note.
