special and compact courses

The author of this course is committed to personal cooperation with Indian musicians, educators and other experts:

  • Teachers of Indian music or dance and faculty members in the field of musicology are welcome to suggest a course plan for the purpose of teaching in conjunction with carnaticstudent.org.
  • Group rates (min. 12 persons per group) available on request; offered to university/college students and those registered with a recognized institution (e.g. adult education programs, music and dance schools run by cultural associations)

This approach is highly successful going by unsolicited feedback from Indian musicians with international teaching experience:

It has been a wonderful experience working with you through this course work that you are offering [i.e. for me as a teacher together with my students]

Two of my students ... found the discussions very stimulating and enjoyed the interaction with you and others in the course. I am very pleased to see the impact and the range of subjects it has sparked in them

About the scope for intercultural learning in other unsolicited testimonials:
