The only video on youtube which is explaining the concept very practically. Hats off to you sir.

In Bengali there is a saying "Guru mukha padma vaakya, Chitate koriya aaikya" Which means, whatever Guru says one should listen very attentively And now I will also try to listen surpeti and tanpura attentively I am really glad that people like you are there on KZfaq... Hare Krishna

Best explanation about tunning of Sa I have ever watched , Scientific explanation with easiest way of teaching! Thank you so much Guru ji! 🙏🏻🙌🏻

Sir no one on the entire youtube explains the way you do. I am grateful to have found your channel.

I see that many learners are asking how to practice notes other than Sa (c in western notation). I believe one can pick the note of his/her choice to practice...like I have my android app "tuner-pitched" where they have sine wave mode in chromatic tuning...which allows me to choose a scale first (I choose E because I have E natural base flute) , and then it gives me a full circle showing all 12 notes (even the octaves selection ). Then I put on an earphone, play note of my choice in a low volume...and then I practice the same note on my flute. It really works like miracle. I'd like to thank Ashwin ji for making this BT series videos...💕

इतनी सरलता से आजतक कभी कीसी ने स्वर के बारे मे समझाते हुऐ नही देखा, आपने सचोट ऐवम पुणॅ तरह से कोई भी समझ सके, ओर अपने आप मे स्वर के बारे मे बदलाव ला सकते है। आपका बहोत बहोत धन्यवाद।

Ashwin Ji. Thanks. I benefitted from your advice.

One of the best explanation! I have been to many gurus (and this is not to say that they are not good but may be just that they did not understand my problem), but no one explained this clearly and this easily. It required about 10 years or so for me to realize this fact as I am not form a family with musical background. I wished someone had told me earlier. I would have performed in front of people more confidently, without worrying about the correctness of my first note. Anyways, better late than never. Thanks for the video.

Wow...I tried practicing Sa with surpeti and initially there was vibration for so long and a moment suddenly came where I could no longer hear difference. It was magical. Thank you sir for Sharing this knowledge.

For Android users, "Tune - Pitched" app can be used. Just need to go to sound mode and select "Sine" and appropriate pitch like E.

I could never have believed someone would demonstrate the phenomenon of beats this accurately!!! This is absolutely genius, sir!

Iam fascinated by your explaining about the basics with beautiful demonstration.thank you.

The whole world of musician searching for such knowledge, you are gem Ashwinji. Having knowledge is one thing and putting it in comprehensable words is another thing, you are master, and I am so glad that I am your student 🙏.

What you are doing is divine. Please do not stop anywhere. Bless everyone with the knowledge you have. Wanted to meet you, ever since i saw a demonstration of yours on stage. Hats off to you. 🙏

Namaskar Ashwinji, thanks for sharing this much needed video. There was a saying " Taal se gaye toh baal se gaye, Sur se gaye toh sar se gaye", thanks for highlighting the importance of sur.

Total beginner , thanks for the tutorial for holding the flute! Had bought a flute from a street flute guy for 200 hundred bucks to help him out . He was also oversmart n gave me a curved flute 🙂 Anyway , so now im just learning to hold flute correctly . Its a whistle type of held flute. But thanks for sharing all the info , hugely appreciate the basics from someone like you !

Thank you for this lovely lesson. It's a great privilege learning from the most versatile master himself.

Your sincerity and humbleness makes you a unique and extraordinary person Keep it up, we will be all blessed. Thanks Satish Bhatia

Last me jo aapne kaha... wo bhi dil ko touch kr gya... nhi to aj kal sab paise ke piche hi bhagte h.. or bina paise kuch karte nhi...

Ashwin ji, You are sheer genius of magical tihai : 'Absorption - Reflection - Transmission' , quite literally (physics) as well as figuratively (metaphysics) !! There are very few artists who are so good in transmitting knowledge with such clarity and precision.

Sir, Namaskaar. I am running 61 and started learning flute after my retirement from Bank job. I love to see or rather I am inspired to see your BT series videos and found beautiful learning through them.

Thank you for the beautiful and correct explanation. You are a Guru. 🙏

I was wondering about the same thing. When me and a friend of mine were playing the same note together we were getting this kind of sound. Now after watching this video I got the reason behind it. Thank you so much sir !

Ashwin you have already achieved your goal of life. Go ahead with research on this instrument to open out a million secrets of real art. Thanks.

aapka kaam sarahniya or mehnat bhara hai🙏🙏❤

Aapke video bahut helpfull rehte hain🙏🙏

Yes sir I am doing this last seven years and now I feel that whatever you said is correct

I think Along with the Position of lips and angle, amount of air we blow should be uniform to keep constant shadja. If one can't exhale(blow) slowly and uniformly swar may deviate! If We blow more without changing the angle it gets sharper..

Excellent sir, I like your way of playing bansuri. You are great sir.

Thank you sir for sharing the knowledge. I'm such a person that I have a liking towards music since childhood but could not pursue. I like your style of playing the flute and would like to learn from you.
