Harmonium
There was no facility to get Harmoniums properly tuned in internationally accepted A-440 pitch.

Shrutinandan pioneered this facility for the first time in our country.

As a result of this effort harmonium makers, these days, have understood its necessity and tunes in the said international pitch.

But it remains a perennial problem, as efficient tuners are not readily available in numbers.

As a quality control measure in this arena, Shrutinandan has some finest harmonium makers and tuners who make and tune new harmoniums and repair and tune the old ones which are always checked by Pandit Ajoy Chakrabarty himself and some of his designated students to facilitate students learning about the correct pitch and tune of the harmonium.

Professional musicians also get their Harmoniums tuned in correct pitch at Shrutinandan.

"Checked By Shrutinandan" tags are affixed on the Harmoniums tuned in here.

 
 
Tanpura
Tanpura is the mother of Indian music. The wooden acoustic Tanpura makes a student’s voice correct and open in good timber. Most of the musicians and music students of our country are ignorant about tuning a Tanpura, fixing strings on it and playing it correctly. Students at Shrutinandan learn about - how to hold a Tanpura correctly, which is the correct position to play, the correct fingering and how to play it with correct rhythm from very early age. They are taught how to tune it correctly after 5 / 6 years of training, when they are about 13 years old. Fixing strings of tanpura are taught at 14. Shrutinandan also teaches the students to know which is the correct gauge of a string for a particular pitch, although this is a subject for advanced students.

Acoustic Tanpura is an instrument that produces the highest and the lowest frequencies through its overtones among all the acoustic instruments in the world. Playing continuously in correct rhythm and fingering, the drones produced bring down the blood pressure and release all sorts of hypertension.

Shrutinandan arranges to get good Tanpuras, checked by Panditji with "Checked By Shrutinandan" tag affixed on it.
