Live Teaching in Real-Time

 

¨       "Initially I was hesitant about learning the sitar in Real Time mode over the Internet. My concerns were to do with things like latency, Internet reliability, time zone differences, etc. However, after taking the offer of two free lessons I realised these were minor issues, especially when compared to the expertise and skills Professor Sanjoy Bandopadhyay has to offer.  

I would recommend this form of teaching to anyone who is serious about learning the Sitar from a true Professional. In just a few lessons my skills and confidence has grown ten fold, I am now starting to feel like a Sitarist!"    Mahesh Sharma, UK

¨       “I have been learning to play sitar on line (through internet) for 7 months from professor Sanjoy Bandopadhyay. It is a great experience and my playing has improved beyond my expectations. This is really a fantastic opportunity to have the guidance from a real pandit. The teachings are deeply thought and systematically organised, according to the level of the student.  As a result, the tone, speed, clarity, and expression in my playing has improved immensely. I want to go on with the experience as long as possible.”  :: Denis Jouin, France  [Translated into English by Georges Lindenmeyer[i]]
