Keshav Music

While Keshav Music sells all Indian instruments - harmoniums is what we do most. We have a great variety of styles and sizes; all hand tuned and tweaked for trouble free playing. We welcome visits to the shop where you can try before you buy. Please do call in advance for an appointment!

Coming Soon! The Mota Baccha (Fatt Baby) Mini harmoniums made exclusively for Keshav Music Imports. These will have a much bigger sound and lots more sustain than the Paloma Shyamdas I used to sell. And for hundreds of dollars less money! I introduced the Shyamdas years ago in the USA and they were very popular - but they became super expensive (due to the greed of the maker) and in truth - had a small sound and disappointing sustain compared to full-sized harmoniums. The Fa...tt Baby Mini is very simple and basic with no knobs or stops which are actually one of the worst sourcea of air leaks in harmoniums. . . making the Fatt Baby Mini harmonium more air-tight and more reliable. I am offering these at the introductory price of $525.00 + shipping. If you have questions - do not leave messages on FB. Email me via my site: WWW.Keshav-Music.com

If you have a harmonium with a buzzing reed - check out my link. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jLvVxL9m01Y

With shruti boxes becoming so popular - I have lately been getting calls from folks who've purchased them online only to find the shruti box they've purchased has buzzing notes, or is not properly tuned - or not A-440 as advertised. People are learning the hard way that sites not run by musicians don't have a clue about tuning or preparation of these instruments. No shruti box comes from India tuned to A-440 no matter how much they tell you it will. All my shruti boxes are fine tuned by me. A-440 is an extra charge - but if you need it - I can do it - and do it right. Please friends - if you want to contact me - email me via the contact link at www.keshav-music.com rather than leaving messages on FaceBook.

I want to express gratitude to all the folks who sent kind wishes while I was recuperating from surgery and waited till now to place orders. In this world of instant gratification, it's good to know that there's a segment of people out there willing to wait for the real thing. I'm up to speed and prepping and shipping new orders every day. Cheers, Keshav

A quick shout out to folks in the holiday season to say thanks for patiently waiting on new orders while I'm recovering from heart surgery. I expect to be tuning and shipping orders to everyone by around end of January.

The end of sheesham wood tabla dayans is here. The Indian government has banned the export of sheesham wood (Rosewood) tablas. I have three pair from India's top maker Somnath. They are priced at $600.00 and $650.00 for #2 and #1 Sets. Once gone, that will be it for traditional sheesham tabla dayans.

Dear Friends - I've been encouraged to add a blog - so here goes. It will be about Indian music and instruments and really anything connected to Kirtan and Indian Music and Indian culture in general and I of course welcome questions and insights from folks visiting the blog. It's at http://www.keshav-music.com/keshav-blog/

Just sold one of these Tilak 23 models to Jai Uttal while on his East Coast tour. I've got one on the bench getting it ready. Could this one be yours?

Due to the economic crisis in India obtaining new instruments is going to be a dicey affair for the next year at least. Look to see shops raising their prices to take advantage of shortages. Keshav Music promises not to artificially raise prices while this is going on. Most of our instrument prices have remained the same over the last five years. Already we've seen huge price jumps from some of our main competitors.
