How do I start learning the surbahar?

Updated

KalaSudha teaches the surbahar online and in workshops, and a beginner starts at Foundation level. You start with the inward da stroke, played very slowly with the mizrab, the wire plectrum. We teach children as well as adults, so ask us about a starting age and about a size for a younger learner.

Taking up the surbahar again after a long break, you start where you left off: our courses run in levels. Your teacher reviews where you stand first.
