Indian Institute of HARMONICA

Hi,

Its a blessing to have a Teacher like you. A time was there when I used to hear songs & enjoy it, never imagined that someday I could play it myself.....its you who have made my dreams come true...sirji

An ocean of talent is hidden inside this mystery man... looks to be serious at glance but a wonderful sweet personality who can take away all your confusion in music with a sweet smile which he keeps hiding within him..

The greatest thing about this Harmonic man is the more mistake you make he welcomes your mistakes with a broad smile & encourages you with a few magical words 'HO JAYEGA" & yes there you are with the rhythm...he does magic.

I wish him all kind of joy & happiness in his life. 

Lots of prayer for him & his family.

I wish this MAGICAL HARMONIC MAN all the best in his life.....a life filled with lots of love, music & rhythm.

Namste Sirji,

From childhood I had adream to learn mouth organ or you can say from Dost picture of Mr. Dharmendra .i.e (Gadi Bula Rahi hai-song) My dream comes true at the age of 50 due to Mr. Dilip Patil i.e.online teaching class. I had no exposure of musical instrument playing . But within  3to 4 months I leaned lot of songs due Mr. Dilip Patil’s unique teaching method.  Because mouth organ is not easy instrument . To memorize location of  songs are very difficult. His method of teaching is astonishing and his delegation, commitment of teaching is very fantastic. He  is always  available at right time as per  class schedule time. . He is not only teaching mouth organ but also he motivates to learn mouth organ very fast . I am very much thankful and I have no words to express my gratitude to him.
I wish to interest of mouth organ learner very healthy life to Mr. Dilip Patil and healthy long life.
Thank you and warm regards

I never thought that it would be so cool to learn a musical instrument living on the other side of the Globe."The Indian Institute of Harmonica" run by our respected teacher Sri Dilip Patil is one such school of Music. "One Beat At a Time" (O.B.A.T.), a method exclusively taught in this school takes any Music lover to great lengths by which any one can learn their favourite tunes with great ease ! More than anything else, that versatile, simple, humble and great teacher like Sri Dilip Patil are very rare. My heart felt gratitude to Sri Dilip Patil who can teach a student like myself living as far as New York.

"I have been learning to play the harmonica under Mr Dilip Patil's tutorship. When I first met Dilip sir in Mumbai, I had no prior experience of playing any musical instrument but his teaching style and unique technique made it possible for me to play so many different songs in a reasonably well sounding manner (occasionally I even perform for small informal/semi-formal gatherings). The scope of how much one can learn of harmonica is vast and I continue learning from him over the internet (via Google talk or Skype) since my job took me to an overseas assignment far away from India. In fact despite the distance away from Mumbai where Dilip sir is based, the internet offers me a lot of flexibility and yet the same ease of learning as attending classes in person. Playing the harmonica was the best thing that has happened for me as a spare time hobby since this instrument is extremely versatile, portable, unique and relaxing. Hope many more students can learn from Dilip sir and make harmonica a life time experience. Best Wishes",

"Patil Sir is a wonderful musician with an absolute conviction that music can be taught to anyone  who is desirous of leaning music, even if the student doesn't have the 'so called' talent for music . Always looking to innovate newer and easier learning techniques which I have found to be very effective. Thank you sir for moulding a musician within myself through amazing tips and a feeling that even I (who had no music sense) can be a good musician too"

"Patil Sir's ONE BEAT AT A TIME is a really easy method of teaching. I as a complete novice to any musical instrument could  start playing reasonably well in 6 months time.

Wishing Patil Sir all the very best. May his institute flourish into a big organisation".

I wished to learn harmonica since long but I could not get a tutor. Fortunately one of my friends informed me about Dilip Sir and I joined his classes. I was totally novice to music field and thought that perhaps it must be very difficult. But by the virtue of Sir’s O.B.A.T. technique soon I came to know that it was a very easy task. Beginning with small tunes, today I am playing full songs including all the music pieces in them. It is simply surprising that I can learn an entire song, along with all the music pieces in it, in just a single sitting of 45 minutes each and can play the same considerably well with a practice of a couple of days.

Within the span of 8 months I could learn 25 small tunes and 30 full length songs.

I have been learning from Dilip Sir since past 8 months. I tried both of his classes, classroom as well as online classes. In the beginning I was much doubtful about the success and feasibility of the online tuition but now I am of the opinion that online tuition is more beneficial as it works just like a personal home tuition.

"Till date I was just listening the music on  Player, Radio and T.V. Had never dreamed of playing those songs on my favorite instrument- mouth organ. I liked this instrument very much, but could never play.

Some  six months ago came to know about Dilip sir and joined his harmonica classes just to try it out. To my great surprise I could play my first three tunes right at the 2^nd sitting. By virtue of his “ONE BEAT AT A TIME” method I learned to play 12 full songs-including all the music pieces in them within just six months".
