In this Learning Unit, we will explore a mathematical relation very central to music, through patterns in the frequency produced by different keys of harmonium/synthesizer. Once we are able to quantify this relation between different musical सुर produced by harmonium/synthesizer, we will proceed to understand the working of Jaltarang, after which we will make one Jaltarang of our own.
This Learning Unit is best conducted with the help of a music teacher in the school, who can help students better understand concepts related to music.
