How ironic that this French-born instrument, once popular throughout Europe, is now gaining popularity in America… at a time when it’s only manufactured in India! In Feb 2010, Daniel traveled to Delhi to pick out harmoniums from the DMS factory, mainly the DMS-24a model (equivalent to the Bina 23b model made popular by Jai Uttal). Check out the video below to get a glimpse of the origins of these harmoniums:
