Hiren Chate

As a classically trained player, Hiren Chate's musical passion has been influenced by the Punjab, Delhi and Ajarada Gharana (or musical school of thought).

Whilst deepening his understanding and practice of these styles, Hiren Chate is energized about drawing upon a range of musical genres to create new sounds and musical repertoire.

His musical work and experience ranges from teaching individuals and groups; practicing the authentic approach to Indian music; collaborating with eastern and western musicians for musical and theatre productions; composing music for dance productions; and accompanying Kathak and contemporary dancers.

Hiren has been learning tabla under the guidance of Pandit Yogesh Samsi since 2006. He also had the privilege of learning the Ajarada style of tabla from late Sudhir Kumar Saxsena. Hirens other teachers are Shri Divyang Vakil and his father Late Shri Raghunath Chate.

He moved to Mumbai in 2012 to spend more time with his guru Pt. Yogesh Samsi. He also runs his own company called ‘BEAT OF A DRUM' through which he does events, lectures on music & math's, teaches online to students in the UK, USA, Canada and Greece.
