Sri Vidya Sangeetha Pata Shale

We are located over here in Sri Krishna Nagar, right on the Main Road in Tumakuru. Most people around Siddalingaiahna Palya know where we are. It’s a music school, so there is always someone practicing or singing something. We’ve been at this spot near SIT for a good while now. Every day, students show up with their instruments or just to learn vocals. It gets pretty busy in the evenings when the kids get out of their regular school and come here. The building isn't anything fancy, just a regular place where we sit down and go through the lessons. Sometimes the neighbors hear the harmonium or the tabla through the windows. It’s just how things go in this part of town. We spend a lot of time on the basics. I think it’s important to just keep at it until it sounds right. The road outside can be a bit noisy with traffic, but once you get inside and start the music, you don't notice it as much. We just focus on the teaching and making sure the students know their parts. It is a simple setup here in Sri Krishna Nagar. We try to keep things organized but sometimes it gets a bit chaotic when everyone arrives at once. That's just part of running a pata shale in a place like Tumkur. We are just local people teaching what we know to whoever wants to learn.
