From the Business : Since childhood, Richa had been fond of learning and enjoying performing arts, especially music and dance. She got basic training in classical vocal and Bharatnatyam, but couldnot pursue it while she studied to become a foreign language expert. But even while working as a Japanese teacher and translator, she attended as many performances and concerts as her hectic schedule permitted. Rajashree’s tryst with performing arts also began in childhood, when she performed in some plays and tele-films. She learned Bharatnatyam in an early age and performed her Arangetram when she was 12.

We live in California and were looking for virtual khel prog for our daughter's mangalagaur. I found meet kalakar through google and they were extremely professional, super good in every aspect from start to finish. once we decided to go with them, they were extremely good about keeping us informed about the process and we were confident that the work will be done well & on time. We had an amazing beautiful, entertaining program from Srujan sakhya for 35 mins custom made especially for us which we played on Zoom. Program was Super good, informative, graceful & everybody here of all the ages learned something new about the traditional mangalalgaur khel and thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks Rucha from Meet kalakar & srujan sakhya for making it so memorable & a cherished experience. If i had an option to give 7 stars, i would happily do that!

Booked Santoor Artist Manali Mam via Meet Kalakaar for a lite music night for my family. She was very open to song suggestions and went out of her way in giving a memorable Santoor instrumental as well as vocal performance for us. Her mom did a great job at compering for the event and made sure there was no dull moment in-between the performance. Experience with Meet Kalakaar coordinator Priya was also great as she ensured there are no hiccups and everything goes smoothly while coordinating with both Manali Mam and myself. I highly recommend booking through Meet Kalakaar platform for any our your upcoming event requirements. They really care about the artists as well as their customers.
With the help of Meetkalakar, I hired the Phulwa group to perform at my daughter's Mangalagauri evening event. They were very good presentation, music and performance wise. They also encouraged my family and guests to participate in the easier games and taught us a few tricks of playing the intricate formations too. All in all quite satisfied with them. All the best for their next ventures.
Meetkalakar conducted a very good interview of artist Mrs. Anjali Dilip. Much informative, positive and energetic video, full of enthusiasm. A wonderful experience with amazing editing skills. Congratulations team Meetkalakar.

It is an absolute pleasure to anttend Indian Vocals classes with Art Gharana. Not only have I seen significant improvement in my vocal technique, but I've also gained confidence to perform in front of an audience. My teacher creates a supportive and encouraging environment, tailoring lessons to my needs. His expertise and passion shines through in every class. I highly recommend Art Gharana singing classes to anyone looking to refine their craft or simply enjoy singing. You won't regret it!
My experience is good. The way of teaching is great
So far our experience is good. Support team is great. Only downside for us is not having an ability to track the progress in the online portal and no proper course material.
It’s working out good for me when I needed Art Gharana to accommodate in the next class because of my mom and my health . Al My teacher is great, he has encouraged me always that I can do this and is very patient.
I'm proud to have been a part of Artgharana's musical journey. This platform has fulfilled my longing to learn music, and I thank it for that. I would like to specially acknowledge my guru, Sri Roshan Shetty, whose teaching ability and empathetic understanding of student are truly praiseworthy.
Art Gharana offers team of professional teachers and staff who are patient, friendly and flexible. Their platform is easy to manage and the support team is prompt to respond on any sort of queries, concern or changes. I would highly recommend Art Gharana to anyone who is just beginning their journey of learning any Indian classical or fusion art form or an experienced individual looking to polish/practice their skills.
It is great online learning experience. Team is very helpful ...
Art Gharana has been an amazing place with so many different classes to choose from. I love that I don’t have to look elsewhere for what I need, and the flexible schedule makes it super easy to fit classes into my busy routine.
really good place to learn the music and I have been learning here from last 6 months, and I have seen so much progress in my learning, especially my teacher has so much of experience. I am so glad to be a part of Art Gharana.
As a feedback on Ashishji, I would like to rate As below : 1. Knowledge and depth of mastery in classical Sangeet - excellent and more than what I expected. 2. Teaching quality and ability to connect with student - very good. Being my first music learning experience , this was an excellent session and could not ask for more. 3. Punctuality and discipline - excellent , always on time
I am having an awesome experience as a student of Meetkalakar Gurukul. Guru Nishhad ji is awesome. I heartly thank you for this.
I would like to share my experience with you that it was my privilige to learn vocal music from meetkalakar by the mercy of my music teacher It was very difficult to find time from my busy schedule to learn music because of my working hours but due to online vocal music class i could understand the basics of classical music. Therefore i thank meetkalakar team and offer my obeisance unto my music teacher Gaanheera.
Hi Richa ji, hope you are doing fine... Just wanted to let you know that I am quite enjoying my Sitar classes and it's wonderful to have someone like Rafat ji as my teacher. Thank you. From Roshini Dubey
it's very humbling. Person half my age has much more knowledge and talent than me. ...jokes apart. I liked it. I realized I had to practice a lot. Will do. As I said my end goal is not to perform r anything. I want to enjoy music better.
Meetkalakar support staff has been extremely responsive and diligent for all my queries. Their services are efficient and timely. Pallaviji is an awesome teacher. Her teaching caters to the potential and skill level of the individual and she is extremely particular about the rendition of each sur ! She is also very flexible on logistics and timings as may be needed from time to time in a hectic lifestyle.
Thanx for making this possible with a great artist & teacher Hemaji.----
Yes he is very good, so cooperative. Respecting my ideas and doubts very patiently. Clarifying them in understandable manner. I am getting more confident than before
My sessions with Hemaji went well. She is an accomplished Artist, Music Master & Teacher, this is my first impression of her. I enjoy learning from her.
Bharat sir is a very good teacher I like Sir 's class very much. I think its a belated gift feedback
I am very happy with the training I am receiving from Amitaji. This is the kind of training I was hoping for. Overall everything has been working very efficiently and satisfactorily.
Meetkalakar connected me to a fabulous teacher, Kiran ji, from whom i was interested to learn from as he had translated and composed some Indian Classical Music in English for a wider audience. He was thorough in explaining the Ragas step by step from Alankars, wadi, samwadi, to Stahi, Antara, and teaching many old Krishna Bhajans. He could relate with my interest Yoga, and made me follow the breath with attention, thus the songs expressed the spirit coming from inner silence; the themes ranged from returned, unrequited forms of spiritual love in soaring tempos. His explanation of tge universality of Dadra, Rupak Taal helped me connect to Western Classical (Opera) & Jazz styles of Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole. He made sure that the sessions were recorded, and guided me to procure books from: Sanskar Prakashan, Mumbai, which helped me become self-reliant. It has been an amazing journey for me, even after he retired, of self-improvement to keep exploring and refining myself listening to my own recordings in a self-guided manner. Thanks
It is a great pleasure to say that your organisation has changed the traditional way of learning n imparting such beautiful art. You have changed the geographical boundaries as well. Such courses are very helpful for those people who have feelings and passion to learn but due to x,y,z reasons they could not get the feeling of achievement and satisfaction to get into the flair of art. Now as a part of your vision and organisation I personally feel proud and would thank you from the bottom of my heart.
The sessions that I took were really good. Rakhi mam is so knowledgeable and teaches with patience. I'm looking forward to learn more and more from her.
Class going on very well thanks for finding such amazing guru for me!
My classes was amazing. I loved it.. Hema Ji is a wonderful teacher. I just wish the voice clarity of Skype call was more clear.. rest all was fantastic..
Deepa Madam is flexible... & Simple way of teaching... Meetkalakar is helping is to bridge the gap.
Namaskar Before I finish my 10 th class I would like to share my experience with Meetkalakar .The Institution is really one of the Best. I am associated with many institutions to refer Ragas , and other material to learn Hindustani Classical Vocal. The staff is really good. They know well what is the meaning of Customer Satisfaction i.e CRM. The teachers are thorough in Knowledge and the method of teaching the person like me who is now going to Cross 64 and enter 65 is increase interest in learning. You get Motivated to learn more and more and hence I decided to continue my classes further. Here I would like to thank to my Guru Mandar Gadgil and whatever I am learning because of him. He is not only cool but also method of teaching is really good.I could pick up early because of that. I am in Delhi and whatever best help to promote Meetkalakar and its associate members /teachers I will do it. I will try and see if I can fix the program for them in future. Its my pleasure to continue to learn further Hindustani Classical Vocal . Thanks & Regards, Ghanashyam Walimbe CEO Chintamani Consultants & LIC_LOGO
Playing an instrument like guitar or dilruba or piano is good, but to know the lyrics of a song by heart is better. You need to sharpen the art of learning song lyrics or else the next time when someone requests you to play particular lyrics, then it will be challenging without your tabs. For beginners in music, learning songs by heart can be difficult. Here are a few tips, so you don’t have to stay glued to the music sheets, but focus well on your
Mandolin is one of many types of music instruments available in the market today. It belongs to the group of string instruments and it looks just like the smaller version of a guitar. People, who love the sound of waves produced when a string of veena, guitar, etc, is struck, will surely love playing or even listening to the music produced while playing a mandolin.
Do you wish to become an expert clarinet player? Well there are ranges of resources that offer free online clarinet teaching videos as per your convenience.
