Description: Learn to Play Harmonium with Ravindra Katoti - Fingering Techniques and Basic Lessons for Beginners Ravindra G. Katoti Born in a family of music lovers in the year 1969, Ravindra started learning Hindustani classical Harmonium at the age of eight. Since then he has been the disciple of Pandit Rambhau Bijapure, a Harmonium exponent of our times. The blessings and guidance of his Guru, and his own sincere efforts have moulded him into a versatile and brilliant Harmonium player. Ravindra’s Harmonium solo playing is marked by presentation in gayaki anga along with elaborate exploration of the theme in lucid alap, brilliantlayakari, and clear tanakari. Achieving volume control by manipulating bellows is prominently noticeable in his rendition. He is equally proficient in rendering khayal, thumri, dhun, and natyageet. Several first prizes, scholarships and awards have come in search of Ravindra’s talent and art. Karnataka Sangeet Nritya Academy awarded him three years’ scholarship (1986-1989). He was honoured at the hands of His Excellency Dr. P. C. Alexander, Governor, Maharashtra State, for his top performance in Yuva Sangeetotsav held at Ujjain (M.P.), organised by South Central Cultural Zone Cultural Centre, Nagpur (1993). Bhatkande Lalitkala Academy Raipur, M.P. conferred upon him the title, Sur Ratna (1994). He is Sangeet Alankar from Akhil Bharateeya Gandharva Mahavidyalaya, Miraj (1995).
