While much of India is rapidly advancing, the Indian instrument manufacturing process remains very old school. From touch ups to tuning, much of what we do at Old Delhi Music is add a layer of quality control to an otherwise non-standardized production process.
We wrote THIS ARTICLE to ensure customers understand and might appreciate this vintage production style, the unique products we carry, and how we're working to ensure genuine quality, despite the odds. It's a quick read, and definitely worthwhile for anyone considering the purchase of a traditional Indian instrument.
Thank you,
Old Delhi Music

I was recommended this site by a musician I attended a kirtan for and I am not disappointed. This is my first instrument of this kind and even being a beginner the instrument sounds amazing and the free courses offered are a wonderfully touch!! Can't wait to learn more and really show the instruments true potential.

Highly recommend the Bhava studio. While I don’t have a lot of experience with other brands of harmoniums, it’s evident that the bhava studio is high quality. The sound is rich and beautiful. It feels sturdy and well made. The staff was really helpful too, I got to talk to someone who answered all my questions. They also sent me a video of my harmonium before they shipped it so I could hear what it sounds like.

I've really been enjoying this harmonium, the sound is very rich and full and easy to get lost in. The keys have a really nice action and are effortless to play. I've been listening to Nico for many years and have always wanted a harmonium. This thing is like a time machine and gets me the gothic castle vibes I love. I bought a Casio CB-7 bench for it that fits perfectly for sitting in a chair whilst playing. It's sound is deep and beautiful, menacing and harmonious, and I dig it.

Our ashram has purchased several harmoniums and mridangas from Old Delhi Music. All have arrived in perfect shape and are wonderful, stable instruments. Highly recommend.

I received my harmonium a few weeks ago and have been practicing every day. I purchased this harmonium as it was the right price point, has a really full sound, amazing sustain, and really like the Old Delhi company. It is exactly as I expected and am really happy with the purchase. I think it's a harmonium that I'll really grow into. I have a few friends with harmoniums so I have a decent comparison base and it's such a well made and fantastic sounding harmonium. The videos were super helpful in the decision making process and it really plays true to what you see / hear in the videos. Thanks Old Delhi team!!
