Learn harmonium, tabla, dholak, bansuri, khartal, manjira, morchang, tanpura and more through structured 7-14 day intensive programs in Pushkar or flexible online sessions. No prior experience required—70% of our students start from absolute zero and leave with performance-ready skills.
Why Multi-Instrument Training?
Musical Completeness
Understanding rhythm AND melody makes you better at both. Tabla training improves harmonium's sense of rhythm. Harmonium training improves bansuri's melodic phrasing. Cross-pollination of skills creates complete musicianship beyond single-instrument specialists.
Versatility & Adaptability
Lead kirtan solo with harmonium OR with ensemble (add dholak, manjira). Adapt to different musical contexts: classical concert vs folk gathering vs yoga class. Fill multiple roles in ensembles, making you in-demand musician.
Cognitive Benefits
Learning multiple instruments develops musical intelligence faster than single-instrument focus. Pattern recognition across instruments accelerates learning. Deeper understanding of Indian music theory through practical application on diverse instruments.
Economic Efficiency
Multi-instrument packages cost 20-30% less than booking separate courses. One trip to Pushkar, multiple skills acquired. Shared foundational knowledge (taals, ragas) across instruments means faster progression for each subsequent instrument learned.
Cultural Immersion
Experience the breadth of Indian musical instruments in their cultural context. Understand how different instruments interact in traditional settings. Appreciate regional diversity: classical North Indian vs Rajasthani folk traditions.
Self-Sufficiency
No more dependency on hiring separate musicians for events. Kirtan leaders become self-sufficient (harmonium + dholak). Yoga teachers lead live music (harmonium + manjira). Complete musical autonomy for performances and teaching.

Student Success Stories
"I led kirtans for 2 years but always had to hire a tabla player (₹3,000-5,000 per event, inconsistent quality). After the 10-day Harmonium + Dholak intensive (₹32,000 investment), I'm completely self-sufficient. The investment paid for itself in 7 kirtan gigs. More importantly, I CONTROL the energy now—I can speed up or slow down intuitively without verbal communication with separate musician. My kirtans went from good to transformative. Students say the difference is palpable."
Chennai, Kirtan Leader & Yoga Teacher
"I'm a jazz drummer from Germany visiting India for 3 months. Spent 14 days in Pushkar learning Tabla + Dholak + Khartal (₹42,000). The rhythmic complexity blew my mind—Indian percussion is 10x more sophisticated than I imagined from YouTube videos. I now incorporate tabla bols into my jazz drumming (my Berlin band is obsessed with it). We're creating cross-cultural fusion that wouldn't exist without this immersion. Worth every rupee and every hour of wrist pain learning tabla!"
Berlin, Germany, Jazz Drummer
"I teach 15 yoga classes per week in Bangalore. Took 7-day Harmonium program (₹15,000). Now I play live harmonium during savasana and lead 10-min kirtan at end of weekend classes. Students specifically book my classes for the live music—my Friday evening class went from 8 regulars to 32 in 2 months (had to move to bigger studio!). I raised drop-in rate from ₹500 to ₹800 and people still pack in. The harmonium paid for itself in 3 weeks. Beyond business, my personal practice deepened immensely."
Bangalore, Yoga Teacher (500-Hour Certified)
"I'm training to become professional Hindustani classical vocalist. Did 21-day Multi-Instrument Immersion (Harmonium + Tabla + Tanpura, ₹62,000) to understand accompaniment instruments from performer's perspective. Game-changing for my vocal practice—I now hear tabla patterns I never noticed before, I accompany my own riyaaz on harmonium, I understand raga construction through tanpura tuning. My guru in Mumbai said my musicality jumped 5 years ahead in 3 weeks. If you're serious about Indian classical music, this immersion is non-negotiable."
Mumbai, Classical Vocal Student
"I run 10-day silent meditation retreats in Rishikesh (5-6 per year). Wanted to add optional evening kirtan but hiring musicians each time was expensive (₹5,000-8,000 per retreat) and quality varied. After 10-day Harmonium + Dholak training (₹35,000), I now lead kirtans myself. Participants say it's retreat highlight, and I've saved ₹30,000-40,000 annually on musician fees. More importantly, I can customize kirtan energy to match retreat's emotional arc (soft devotional vs ecstatic release). Impossible with hired musicians who don't know the group."
Rishikesh, Meditation Retreat Organizer
"My PhD dissertation focuses on North Indian devotional music instruments. 14-day multi-instrument immersion (Harmonium, Tabla, Dholak, Bansuri, ₹55,000) was essential fieldwork. I could READ about these instruments in books forever, but PLAYING them revealed embodied knowledge impossible to access otherwise. The physical challenge of tabla, the breath control of bansuri, the coordination of harmonium—all visceral understanding now informing my academic analysis. My dissertation committee said experiential component is strongest part of research."
USA, Ethnomusicology PhD Candidate, UCLA
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I really learn multiple instruments in 10-14 days?
You'll achieve basic competency—able to accompany simple bhajans/kirtans, understand foundational techniques, practice independently with clear direction. Mastery takes months/years of daily practice (like any instrument). Think of the intensive as "learning to walk" so you can "run" through self-practice afterward. 80% of students who complete multi-instrument intensives are performing publicly within 3-6 months with consistent daily practice (15-30 mins per instrument).
Which instruments are easiest vs hardest to learn?
Easiest (Quick Results): Manjira (2-3 days competency), Dholak (5-7 days basic rhythms), Harmonium basics (7-10 days simple bhajans), Tanpura (3 days operation)
Moderate: Khartal (7 days patterns), Morchang (5 days technique), Harmonium intermediate (14+ days raga integration)
Most Challenging: Tabla (14+ days for basic strokes + 1-2 taals, requires daily practice commitment), Bansuri (14+ days for simple melodies, physically demanding breath control)
Our Recommendation: If multi-instrument, pair one easier (quick wins for motivation) with one challenging (deep learning).
Do I need prior musical experience?
Absolutely NOT required! 70% of our multi-instrument students start from complete zero—never played any instrument, can't read music, no sense of rhythm (they think). We teach ear training, rhythm recognition, breath control from scratch. However, if you have prior experience (played any instrument, sang in choir, strong rhythmic sense), you'll progress noticeably faster. We assess your level on Day 1 and adjust curriculum accordingly—never boring advanced students with basics, never overwhelming beginners.
Can I do multi-instrument training online?
Yes, but with limitations:
Works Well Online: Harmonium (we can see hand position clearly), Bansuri theory and fingering, Tanpura operation, basic manjira rhythms
Less Effective Online: Tabla and Dholak (percussion requires in-person posture correction—wrist angle, finger placement, striking zone on drum head—hard to see/correct via video), ensemble integration (playing multiple instruments together needs in-person coordination)
Our Recommendation: Start online for melodic instruments (harmonium, bansuri basics). Visit Pushkar for percussion + integration intensive. Hybrid approach works best for most students.
What instrument combination should I choose?
Based on Your Goals:
Want to lead kirtans solo? → Harmonium + Dholak + Manjira (most popular combo)
Want to be classical accompanist? → Tabla + Harmonium (classical duo), OR Tabla + Tanpura if you're vocalist
Want folk performance skills? → Dholak + Khartal + Morchang (Rajasthani folk ensemble)
Want meditative/healing music practice? → Bansuri + Harmonium + Tanpura (all melodic, raga-focused)
Want percussion specialization? → Tabla + Dholak + Khartal (comprehensive rhythm training)
Still Unsure? Book free 20-min consultation—we'll ask about your goals, musical background, and recommend optimal combination. We've guided 500+ students through this decision.
Do I need to buy instruments?
During Program: Use school instruments (all included in pricing, no rental fees). We have 15+ harmoniums, 10+ tabla sets, 8+ dholaks, multiple bansuri, folk instruments.
After Program (for home practice):
Harmonium: ₹8,000-25,000 (essential if continuing—we recommend ₹12,000-15,000 range for beginners)
Tabla: ₹5,000-20,000 (essential if continuing—₹8,000-12,000 student-quality sufficient)
Dholak: ₹2,000-6,000 (very affordable, ₹3,500-4,500 range works well)
Bansuri: ₹500-3,000 (extremely affordable, ₹800-1,500 professional-quality available)
Manjira/Khartal/Morchang: ₹200-1,500 each (very affordable folk instruments)
Tanpura: ₹10,000-40,000 OR use electronic tanpura ₹3,000-8,000 (most students use electronic)
We Can Help: Arrange purchases at local Pushkar market prices (20-30% cheaper than Delhi/online). Instrument shopping guided tour included if you want to purchase.
What if I can't practice daily after the intensive?
Realistic expectation-setting: Some practice beats no practice. Even 10-15 mins, 3 times per week maintains skills and shows gradual progress (just slower). We'd rather you practice 10 mins consistently than plan 1 hour daily and quit from guilt after 2 weeks.
Retention Timeline:
With NO practice post-intensive: Skills atrophy significantly within 2-3 months. You'll remember concepts but lose muscle memory.
With 10-15 mins, 3x/week: Skills maintain and gradually improve over months. 6 months later you're noticeably better than end-of-intensive.
With 20-30 mins daily: Skills accelerate rapidly. 3 months later you're performing confidently. 6 months you're teaching basics to others.
We design realistic practice routines that fit YOUR actual life, not unrealistic ideals. Honesty during program helps us calibrate expectations.
Is accommodation included in pricing?
No, accommodation is separate. Program pricing covers all instruction, instruments, materials, certificates only.
Why Separate? Students have vastly different budgets (₹300/night guesthouse to ₹3,000/night boutique hotel). We provide recommendations and help with booking, but you choose accommodation matching your budget.
Accommodation Options in Pushkar:
Budget (₹300-600/night): Basic guesthouses, shared bathrooms, 5-10 min walk to school
Mid-Range (₹800-1,500/night): Clean private rooms, attached bathrooms, some with AC, 2-5 min walk
Comfortable (₹2,000-3,500/night): Boutique hotels, lake views, WiFi, breakfast, 5-10 min walk
Total Accommodation Cost Examples: 7-day program = ₹2,100-10,500 additional | 14-day = ₹4,200-21,000 additional
We Help: Provide list of 15+ recommended places (we've vetted them), can call/email to check availability, advise on locations closest to school.
What's the best time of year to visit Pushkar for this training?
Best Season (Oct-March): Pleasant weather (15-28°C), Pushkar's peak season, most vibrant cultural scene (festivals, concerts). Downside: Accommodation 30-50% more expensive, book 8-12 weeks ahead.
Good Season (July-Sep): Monsoon—occasional rain but not constant. Pushkar looks lush and green. Fewer tourists (more intimate experience). Accommodation cheaper. Downside: Can be humid, rare day completely rained out (we reschedule).
Hot Season (April-June): Very hot (32-42°C), fewer tourists, accommodation cheapest. Upside: If you handle heat well, most affordable time and very available dates. Downside: Physically draining to practice instruments in high heat.
Our Recommendation: Oct-Nov or Feb-March (ideal weather, post/pre-peak season pricing, vibrant cultural scene).
Can I get a certificate? Is it recognized?
Yes, Certificate of Completion issued after: 7+ day single-instrument programs, all multi-instrument packages
Certificate Includes: Your name, dates attended, instruments studied, skill level achieved (beginner/intermediate), teacher signature, school seal
Recognition: This is NOT a university degree or government-accredited certification. It's a training completion certificate from established music school (17+ years operating). Useful for: Yoga teachers adding to credentials (put on website/resume), kirtan leaders showing training background, personal documentation of learning journey.
Advanced Option: After 14+ day intensive + demonstrating proficiency, we can provide Recommendation Letter (useful if you want to teach basic classes yourself, apply for music therapy programs, etc.).
Why Multi-Instrument Training at Krishna Music School
All instruments under one roof with coordinated curriculum. Teachers collaborate to design optimal multi-instrument progression. No need to find separate teachers for each instrument (logistical nightmare avoided).
Not academic theory divorced from practice. Every technique taught with real-world application: "Here's how to use this in kirtan," "This rhythm works for weddings," "Play this during yoga savasana." Performance-ready skills, not just exercises.
Learn instruments in their cultural homeland (Rajasthan). Attend temple music, folk performances, classical concerts. Understand WHY these instruments exist, WHEN they're traditionally played, HOW they function in Indian musical ecology. Living tradition, not museum study.
Unlock the Rhythmic Soul of India
No matter your background—whether absolute beginner or experienced musician exploring new territory—immerse yourself in the depth of Indian instruments through hands-on, devotional, joyful experience. From the melodic richness of harmonium to the rhythmic complexity of tabla, from the meditative breath of bansuri to the folk energy of dholak—discover the instruments that speak to YOUR musical soul.
