Tirupati Kirtan Premium Mini

The Tirupati Kirtan Premium Mini is a smaller version of the Kirtan Premium model, making it particularly suitable for traveling. The simple construction makes it inexpensive and robust, high-quality double reeds ensure a full, warm sound and it has surprisingly good sustain for its small size. A good choice for beginners as well as for ambitious kirtan singers.

The outer bellows of the Kirtan Premium Mini are fixed and do not need to be opened and secured with hooks. This makes the entire folding mechanism considerably less sensitive and easier to use. When folded, the entire instrument is protected in an integrated sturdy wooden case.

Equipment:

• 32 simple bar keys
• Range of two and a half octaves from F to C
• Two reeds per note in the middle and low registers
• two register slides for playing the middle and low registers separately or together
• two drone slides for continuous notes C, G
• Side-opening bellows with multiple folding
• Removable cover plate with sliding opening (Jali)
• Folding mechanism for stowing in the built-in case
• padded carrying case included
• Housing and case made of solid pine wood

Pine wood is mainly used for harmoniums in the Delhi area and is much softer than the teak wood more commonly used in Mumbai and Kolkata. For this reason, many pine harmoniums get small dents or other blemishes during production and transportation to Europe - these are due to the material and should not be regarded as defects.
