"In India, usually when you learn music, the guruji comes home and teaches how to sing. Whereas, if you go to Berklee College of Music or Juilliard School just to learn trumpet for example, everything is structured. You cannot put it down in points anywhere. There was another factor about Indian music, which urged Mahdevan to set up the online music academy, available on "I always noticed that whenever it came to Indian classical music or even just Indian music, the teaching methods are very unstructured. The trained classical singer, popular for songs like 'Breathless', 'Jhoom barabar jhoom' and 'Desi girl', has tied up with Clood On, a provider of virtual learning software, to provide step-by-step training to students of all age groups living in the US. So now is the time!," Mahadevan revealed. "I have always had it in my mind to do something in music education because after having learned so much, I had to give it back sometime.
It is called the Shankar Mahadevan Academy. We would also like to thank Ganesh Somwanshi of Krescendo Communications for introducing us to SMA and helping us in formulating this alliance,” she added.įor availing offers on the courses, log in here.Shankar Mahadevan has launched an online music academy to bring Indians living in the US a step closer to their roots by imparting structured education in Indian classical music. “We welcome SMA to Singapore and are excited to be associated with it.
