Learn keyboard in the Indian classical way level 2 for Kannada speakers, featuring a free sample to practice and build foundational skills.
Join a guided play-along session to reinforce keyboard skills in the Indian classical tradition, focusing on Kannada notation and level 2 concepts.
Learn keyboard skills in the Indian classical way, level 2 (Kannada), exploring a song in the major scale with swing rhythm called Dovre in Hindustani, and pallavi phrases.
In this course you will be learning 4 Kannada Songs:
"Belliya Raja Baaro" from the movie "Singaporenalli Raja Kulla"
"Baare Baare Chandada Cheluvina Taare" from the "Nagarahaavu"
"Neera Bittu Nelada Mele Doni Saagadu" from the movie "Hombisilu"
"Baanigondu Elle Ellide" from the movie "Premada Kaanike"
The songs are so selected that, you will be applying the knowledge that you have gained from the Level 1 course.
You will be applying the usage of
'Shankarabharana' or 'Bilawal' or 'Major Scale' and
'Natabhairavi' or 'Asavari That' or 'Natural Minor scale' along with 2 types of widely used rhythm patterns.
Each song has 2 videos.
Tutorial Video: I have taught the whole song ' line-by-line '
Play-along: You can play the song along with me using this video.
(This video also has the details of setting that you have to make on the keyboard)
The teaching in this course is purposefully limited only to Pallavi and Charana.
Usually, Pallavi and Charana are easier to understand and play. So I have picked those parts which can be picked up easily. The prelude and interludes (music that comes before and after vocals) are avoided at this level. But it will definitely be taught in the coming levels.
