IdentityAlpesh started his musical journey few years back but to him it seemed like an age old affiliation. From his tender age
he was fascinated by Rhythms and sounds but when he saw "TABLA" it was love at first sight for the instrument and the
sound itself. He was always attracted to the ancient traditional art form, as it always tried to speak something in his ears
through music. He is lucky and blessed to be trained under Guru Shri Sudhir Kumar Saxena. Being trained in Guru Shishya Parampara (The lineage of teacher to disciple) he also completed his Master's in Music (India) & has done research in

name few are UK Drum Fest, GW festival, World music festival, Northampton Festival and many more.
Performed at BBC RADIO at various events. Being Indian and trained in Indian classical music he has played in many
musical forms like Jazz, African music, Electro music, Rock and folk music...
Currently he is involved in Teaching and performing activities and also formed Indo- Jazz fusion band called Fusion
