FAQ'SShouldn't I be learning this music from a master who is from India. - This music tradition has been passed down for over a thousand years through a direct teacher-student relationship. I'm fortunate to have learned under India's greatest musical lineages.

I find that my background in Western music allows me to translate information more clearly and efficiently to students who are not accustomed to the Indian tradition. I've never improvised. Is this for me.
