Univ. of Hawaiʻi — Works of Subi Shah (subtitled tutorials):

Structured lessons

YouTube searches

URLs rot, so search these on YouTube:

  • madal lesson for beginners
  • मादल सिक्ने तरिका
  • Kutumba madal
  • madal jhyaure taal
  • madal abhyaas (practice)
Buying a madal: a medium size is most versatile to learn on. Ask for one already fitted with khari (black tuning paste) on both heads. Natural-hide heads sound best but need occasional tuning; synthetic is lower-maintenance.
