Name: HARMONIUM
The harmonium has been classified as an aerophone instrument with reeds that vibrate freely. This instrument is pumped with one hand, while the other hand is used to play on the keyboard. The harmonium usually accompanies the vocal part, playing the second melody in Hindustani music. This instrument originates from Great Britian, and was introduced to India where it established itself as a vital part of Indian music ensembles. (Matusky and Tan, 1997).
