Q: What if I already know how to play my harmonium?

A: All are welcome to join! For those who already play harmonium – this training will help you take your skills to the next level.

Our students find this training very helpful in building their skills, and making them better players!

Q: What if I don’t have a harmonium?

A: A keyboard is a good alternative! You can purchase an inexpensive one before you dive into buying a harmonium. (All of the chords we provide work on other instruments, too- guitar, ukelele, etc… However, the training is specifically for harmonium/keyboards)
Please note that all participants must provide their own instrument. If you’d like to join the training and are interested in buying a harmonium, email us for recommendations.
