Saptak School Of Music

We aren't a regular school with math and science. We teach music. You can find us inside the Vidyanagar High School premises over in Usmanpura. It’s a good spot because people already know where the high school is. We use some of the rooms there for our lessons. It gets quite noisy with all the different instruments going at once, but that’s the point. We have people coming in to learn sitar, tabla, and singing. It’s a mix of young kids and older adults who just want to pick up a hobby. The rooms are simple, just some rugs on the floor and a few chairs. We don't have fancy soundproofing, so you can hear the music from the hallway. Our teachers are musicians themselves, so they know their stuff. Usmanpura is a busy area, but once you get inside the school gates, it’s a bit more focused. We don't have a big front desk or a lobby. You just come in, find your teacher, and start playing. It’s a very informal atmosphere. We don't do much advertising. People find us because they want to learn traditional music and they know we are here. It’s a nice way to spend an evening. We’ve been at this for a while and it’s just part of our routine now. The evening air usually carries the sound of the flutes and drums. It’s not always perfect, but the effort is there every single day.
