Ashutosh Sharma
Sitar
"My musical voyage had begun with the Indian bamboo flute, and that made me listen to other instruments, and I found another magical and very soothing instrument, the sitar. It was challenging to find an appropriate mentor to learn the sitar. After three years of tenacious searching, I eventually made contact with Sitarstrings in Mumbai and began learning the sitar there. However, after completing my basic training for a few months, I had to move to Australia to fulfil my professional commitments. Fortunately, Sitarstrings' tech-savvy culture and methodology allowed me to complete my further training virtually. I'm over 40 years old, and after learning the instrument for about two years, I'm thrilled to be able to play a few ragas on the sitar. Sitar is now a family member. As a matter of fact, my daughter and other family members have grown to enjoy listening to Indian classical music. The bond I have with the Sitarstrings is truly a blessing. My learning path has been illuminated by their outstanding mentoring and patient assistance, which involved multiple examples to help me grasp the topic or idea. I vouch for Sitarstrings because of their extensive subject knowledge, intense enthusiasm for teaching, creative methods of instruction, and their intention and ability to preserve and spread the authentic traditional character of Indian classical music.

"Under the guidance of faculty at Sitarstrings, I have been able to understand the basics of playing the Sitar and sharpen my skills overtime. Sir had demonstrated a deep passion for the instrument which is reflected in his teachings. His patience and knowledge of the instrument have helped me learn better. Not only does he impart technical expertise, but also guides one to grow and evolve as a person. For anyone looking to learn the basics or upgrade their skills in playing the Sitar, I would recommend them to learn under the guidance of Sitarstrings faculty. "

"I've had a great urge to learn the sitar, but I believed it would be really challenging as I'm a working professional and also it was too late for me to begin learning how to play this lovely instrument from scratch at this age. On day while searching for music instructors/classes online I came across sitarstrings and booked an introductory session with them. The demo session was more than enough for me to realise that I had found what I was looking for, and I enrolled right away in the appropriate course for me. I started learning this instrument less than a year ago, and after seeing how far I've come, I'm confident that, despite all the odds, I can finally learn to play it well. I am thankful to my teacher who not only has a wealth of knowledge and expertise with the instrument, but who is also very encouraging and supportive. To anyone looking for sitar training, I would heartily recommend sitarstrings. "

"I am grateful for having the privilege to have started learning with Vishal sir at Sitar Strings. Vishal sir is one of the most patient, humble, kind and wise teachers I have met, always understanding what is needed and how to support and encourage, especially as I had no prior background in music. I have enjoyed not only learning about how to play but understanding more about the instrument, doing the practice, and gaining insights into the ethos and culture behind the sitar and classical music. No question or topic is too small to discuss and Vishal sir has always encouraged curiosity and questions. I really admire his deep understanding and dedication to the cause of music and music education and hope and wish for the vision and efforts of Sitar Strings to continue to grow and shine. "
