Tabla

"I stayed in Kolkata for only two weeks and I got about 5 Lessons with Souvick. He got back to me very soon and we managed to arrange a class within the next 24 hours. I learned a lot. He is a great musician who plays internationally and his teaching is very understandable and logical. Since I don't speak Bengali I was glad his English is very good. I am glad I met him and I will take some more Tabla Lessons soon. He also helped me to buy a pair of good Tabla for a good price. Can only recommend him. "

The pleasure was mutual I guess, to meet such an amazing jazz drummer from Switzerland.. His sense of music is really great :) Very very receptive he is, when it comes to learning music from other traditions... See you soon in May in Switzerland and even play (collaborate) together and continue the music....

I support Surjeet's answer. Very few parents have the understanding about classical Indian instruments, so that they would be able to guide the youngsters properly. Then again the question of passion versus profession. For recreation, most parents would send the kids to park for playing, movie, watching TV, etc.; they hardly consider the fact that music improves the ability to concentrate, and increases intelligence, helps in development of the brain. Finally, professionally speaking almost no parents want their children to become a musician as they don't see any future with it. How can we expect a child to see future when their parents do not.? Like any other profession, music is also like a business.. but in India there is no professional institution for artist management or music counselling to give comprehensive guidelines on the subject. What exists is a hierarchy, and no ustad or pandit wants to share the secrets of the business outside the lineage. This is an unfortunate fact. That is why we see only children of established musicians walking on the way that the others are always skeptical about. This is the system in India, we can't expect to change it overnight

At least 15 years to be in the starting range of what we mean by expert... and expertise has different heights, so it takes longer association with music in general, not only tabla.... to become an accomplished accompanist.
