Our Santoor students start by learning how to sit with the instrument, holding the wooden hammers and identifying the strings through the practice of sargams (various note patterns).
With time, students are introduced to the intricacies of melodies/raags, improvisation within the raag framework and practice their speed which are all different components of their repertoire.
Famous artists include Pandit Bhajan Sopori, Pandit Shiv Kumar Sharma, Rahul Sharma, Takahiro Arai, Kamaljit Kaur, Abhay Rustum Sopori and Ustad Harjinderpal Singh ji, a senior disciple of Pandit Shiv Kumar Sharma.
