TESTIMONIALS
Our son took piano lessons for five years before we found Sarath Kumar. Within months under Sarath’s instructions, our son not only can play challenging songs, but his musicality has improved greatly. Sarath’s perseverance, patience, professionalism and huge amount of personal talent and a vast accumulation of music knowledge, but equally important is his capacity and passion for coaching and giving my son and his students the opportunity to perform live for various cultural programes.
I was amazed to see how my Son, an absolute beginner mastered the guitar to perform at a public concert within couple of months starting guitar lessons with Sarath. I believe my son will have a natural appreciation for music for the rest of his life, due to the foundation he received from Sarath. I am highly impressed with Sarath’s talents and dedication as a
music teacher.
Sarath is a wonderful teacher, very caring and patient. He inspires me as a student to feel the soul of the music and to master techniques with ease. He has the uncanny ability to bring out the best of all his students so that they will have the confidence to let the essence of the music shine through. His love of music and the esraj really rubs off onhis students.
