Tabla

"I came to know about the tabla classes while searching online and instantly I made the decision to go for the same. And today I can say my decision was correct. Prakash Sir is very disciplined with his teachings and makes the classes interesting by incorporating different ideas. He is a very friendly person and welcomes any new ideas coming from anyone. I would recommend anyone who is interested in learning the art of professionally playing tabla should surely join the classes. "

Tabla

"I know Prakash since school days. Besides being an excellent tabla player, Prakash is also a gem of a person, a superb teacher and a trustworthy friend. I am pursuing Hindustani Vocals and I had also learnt basics of Tabla before I started taking classes with him and I feel so grateful of Prakash for making me understand the finer nuances of Tabla all over again in a very polished, systematic and yet friendly way. He has generated an active interest in me for playing tabla as I understand it much better now and I really enjoy and look forward to learn more under him as he continues to inspire me a lot with each consecutive session and he also helps me with vocals by accompanying with Tabla. It is a great fun to have jam sessions with him and I am learning a lot from his vast experience. I would definitely recommend everyone interested in learning Tabla to contact Prakash as he is simply the best guide and trust me it is really very hard to find a good teacher especially for Classical music. I wish all the success and happiness for my dear friend Prakash:) "
