After finding the Perfect Harmonium in Mysore city I was all set for my first lesson with Ranjini!
I arrived promptly at 4pm as requested and we got started~
We began with some Slokas (chanting) as Ranjini said it was a Prayer to God that our lesson would go smoothly (as it did!)
I had attended One Chanting session 4 years ago with Ranjini's cousin, the well known
Jayashree of Mysore~ and was quite pleasantly surprised at how it all came back to me so easily and effortlessly.
After we Chanted, the lesson began and Ranjini is a Very patient teacher I must say as I was nervous. I played the accordion as a young girl, so it has been many years since I have played an instrument.
I know I will get it, as it is quite simple to play if you just take your time and practice!
(we went to Three music stores before we found the Best Harmonium at the Best price)
I will have my class every Tuesday at 4pm for one hour~
And practice everyday for one hour...
I have plenty of time to perfect this instrument!!
If you are planning on coming to Mysore just contact me for Ranjinis info as she teaches Chanting, The Yoga Sutras, The Veena and of course the Harmonium.
She is a very well known teacher here in Mysore and is in fact a "Senior" Teacher and her rates are quite reasonable!
