For the past eight years, my journey has been a melodious symphony, filled with the enchanting rhythms and soul-stirring melodies of Indian classical music. From the resonant tones of the harmonium to the intricate beats of the tabla and the versatile chords of the keyboard, I have immersed myself in the rich tapestry of musical expression, honing my skills and deepening my understanding of this timeless art form.

My passion for music led me to pursue a postgraduate degree in music, where I delved into the theoretical nuances and practical intricacies of Indian classical music. Guided by seasoned mentors and inspired by the rich heritage of our musical tradition, I embarked on a journey of exploration and discovery, seeking to master the subtle nuances and intricate techniques that define this revered art form.

Throughout my musical journey, I have had the privilege of sharing my passion and expertise with aspiring musicians through various institutions and platforms. Whether teaching the fundamentals of rhythm on the tabla or guiding students through the melodic intricacies of the harmonium and keyboard, I have found immense joy and fulfillment in nurturing the talents of the next generation of musicians.

One of the highlights of my journey was participating in the prestigious youth festival, where I had the honor of clinching the third prize in 2020. This experience not only validated my dedication and commitment to the art of music but also served as a testament to the transformative power of music in bringing people together and fostering a sense of community and camaraderie.

While my journey has taken me far and wide, from the bustling streets of Jahangirpuri to the serene surroundings of Chartarpur and Gurugram, my commitment to spreading the joy of music remains unwavering. Within a radius of 40 kilometers, I offer my expertise and guidance to students eager to embark on their own musical journey, conducting practical sessions that inspire creativity, instill discipline, and ignite a lifelong passion for music.

Though I may not have formal qualifications or certifications, my years of experience and dedication to the art of music speak volumes. I believe that true mastery of music lies not in accolades or credentials but in the ability to connect with the soul of the music and convey its essence to others.

In my teaching approach, I prioritize hands-on learning experiences, allowing students to develop their musical skills through active participation and practice. While I may not provide formal assessments or examinations, I offer guidance, encouragement, and support to help students unlock their full potential and discover the joy of musical expression.

In addition to practical sessions, I provide students with comprehensive notes and resources to supplement their learning journey. These materials serve as valuable references, offering insights into musical theory, notation, and technique, and empowering students to deepen their understanding and appreciation of Indian classical music.

As I continue on my musical journey, I am grateful for the opportunity to share my passion and expertise with others, enriching lives and inspiring hearts through the universal language of music. Whether through the resonant strains of the harmonium, the rhythmic beats of the tabla, or the soulful melodies of the keyboard, I am committed to spreading the transformative power of Indian classical music far and wide, one note at a time.
