Showing the single result

Bansuri (Hindi: बांसुरी) (Bangla: বাঁসুরী) is a transverse flute native to India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Nepal, made from a single piece of bamboo with six or seven holes.

An ancient musical instrument associated with cowherds and the pastoral tradition, it is closely linked to the love story of Krishna and Radha, and is depicted in Buddhist paintings from around 100 AD. The word Bansuri originates from Sanskrit [bamboo] + swar [musical note].

Bansuri in the North and Venu in the South of India are the flutes associated with Lord Krishna and spiritual awakening, a call to devotion. Stories depict Krishna's Bansuri having an enchanting effect not only on women (gopis) but also on the animals of the region.

The Bansuri is one of the finest instruments for expressing the emotional subtleties of Hindu Ragas, the pure and rich tones of the Bansuri are like a continuous prayer, with the ability to deeply calm and open the hearts of the listener and the flutist.

Som de Flauta Bansuri B em Bhupali (penta maior)

....nos estudos em Bhairav com bansuri A# médio, fiz esse corte, pois achei muito interessante a sincronia da luz refletida do trovão e o som segundos depois da sua presença.... entre a suspensão e o repouso das notas....
"somos natureza - a distância das notas, dos sons e planetas são apenas um fenômeno, mas o espírito é eterno, desfrute o tempo mas não se apegue, a real natureza é imaterial"

Som de Bansuri A# Bhairav "thunder moment"

Improviso em Basant Mukhari com Bansuri E
Sabe... as vezes uma pequena melodia vira uma memória e memória é melodia... memórias que as vezes relembram experiências e todas as emoções de um coração humano, talvez ai esteja a nobreza de manter viva essas memórias e a música do alento vital... almas que amam e sentem o maravilhamento (vismaya) em toda sua extensão.... essa trecho de melodia e memória, dedico ao espírito de Leni Raquel (avó dos meus filhos), desejo que sua passagem seja suave, esteja em paz e acolhida pelo Grande Espírito. Gratidão!

Tunings

The tuning key of the Bansuri is the pitch of the note SA, played with the first three holes closed. We produce the Bansuri in 9 tunings, with the smallest flute tuned to C High (High DO) recommended for first contact and for people with small hands and fingers. Next we have tuning in B (SI), Bb (B flat), A (LA), G (SOL), also recommended for beginners. Then we have tuning in F (FA), E (MI), D (RE) and C Bass (Low DO) with long length and deep sonority with greater spacing between holes ideal for those who already have practice with transverse flutes, as it requires training and adaptation. With E (MI) being the consecrated tuning of schools and used by most solo Bansuri musicians.

PRODUCTION

The bamboo selected for these flutes is native Indian bamboo from Assam (Schizostachyum) with high acoustic quality, without nodes, perfectly cylindrical and with medium to thin wall. For the longer flutes (F, E, D and C Bass) we use bamboo imported directly from India and for the smaller flutes we use bamboo from the same family grown in Brazil. The bamboos are shade-dried for at least 6 months, treated with fire and sealed inside and out with Indian shellac to withstand time, humidity and temperature variations, as well as to protect against fungi and cracks. We do not produce in quantity, the flute is created for YOU. Our flutes have professional concert quality, excellent volume, sound purity and tone from the finest bamboos!
