Proven 12 week formula 
to improve your singing

~ You will be learning from Indrani Mukherjee

I want to give you a quick background on her - Indrani Mukherjee is a vocalist from Kolkata, who performs khayal in the Kirana-Rampur style and thumri in Purab Ang – this flourished in the eastern regions of North India and is characterised by grace, tenderness and delicate tonal embellishments.

Indrani has a fantastic artistic repertoire; Her training brings a unique focus to the literature behind all bandishes (compositions). In her renditions, she has developed an aesthetic blend of lyrics, tala and laya (tempo) which express the emotions of a raga in it's totality. Mukherjee has performed at the Darbar festival and has been working with us for several years.

She initially started learning from her mother, aunt and then trained with her maternal grandfather Sanjib Banerjee. Later she went to study under Pandit Arun Bhaduri, Vidushi Purnima Choudhary, Pandit Ramashreya Jha and Vidushi Manju Sundaram.

Indrani was a scholar of the prestigious ITC Sangeet Research Academy. She has been teaching students of all levels for many years. For the last 10 years she has taken to online teaching, reaching out to beginners and advanced students alike across geographical boundaries.

She is passionate about teaching and giving everyone access to her knowledge.  Indrani believes that online teaching is an excellent medium which gives even wider access to music lovers from all over the world. 
Who is this course for?

  • Access to one of India’s finest teachers with no travelling (Value £1,000)

This would normally cost over £2,000
Only £125 for the whole 12 week course

Yes. You got it right that is around £10 per lesson.

I know this sounds crazy, but we really want you to make a start on your musical journey, and we are 100% committed.  This course provides excellent value for money so that everyone can have access to a high level of teaching.

Most of us have paid anything between £20 - £75 per lesson to learn from a musician with this level of expertise.  Since this is our launch phase we want everyone to benefit at an affordable price.  

We all know that with tuition fees, travel time and other expenses, learning music becomes very expensive. Darbar Academy is committed to keeping Indian classical music affordable and accessible for all.
