Product Description
Our Harmonium, Scale Changer Fixed has 5 drones and 4 stops. Mechanical coupler (plays 2
octaves with one stroke). Keyboard slides to change scale. Integral
bellows, dozens of sound combinations. Finish color and decoration
style may vary from photo. The Harmoniums are not meant to be played in
concert like a mini organ. This is instrument was introduced to India
by the British. It has been embraced and is now a truly Indian
instrument used as accompaniment in devotional songs. The reeds in the
harmonium are tuned to sound well together, not necessarily with other
instruments.
As such they are not in concert pitch and are not meat to be. As with
many Indian instruments the key for the music is selected to best suite
the vocals, or to set a mood. Traditionally, Harmoniums are usually
higher pitched if compared to the Western Scale. Harmonium tuning does
not reflect the Western Scale and is not meant to.
DISCLAIMER: Shellac is very impressionable, no pun intended. During
the long transportation from India the shellac finish becomes marred by
the packing materials. These impressions are superficial and cosmetic.
Impressions on the finish do not affect the playability or sound.
Therefore we do not consider such impressions as blemishes or defects.
