‘In our culture, we have such respect for musical instruments; they are like part of God’- Pandit Ravi Shankar.

And the Sitar is one such instrument that holds the status of the divine, owing to its pure resonance sound. Do you also wish to pick up learning this traditional instrument from scratch? These classes by the highly accomplished Sitar artist Prabir Bhattacharya are an ideal bid for beginners interested in Hindustani Classical Music and the Sitar.
