About Swarnayan
I am Swarnayan, trained in Hindustani Classical Vocal for over 25 years in the Bishnupur Gharana under the guidance of Pt. Pranay Pathak, starting at the tender age of 4 years. My musical understanding is additionally enriched by ongoing Bansuri training in the Maihar Gharana tradition under the disciples of Pt. Hariprasad Chaurasia — Pt. Santosh Sant, Sameer Rao, and Rupak Kulkarni. This dual training has given me a deep appreciation for gayaki ang, raga architecture, and nuanced musical expression. I also hold senior diplomas with distinction and have performed at major cultural venues and Inter-IIT platforms. I teach with seriousness, respect for lineage, and a calm, supportive attitude toward every student.

Master Hindustani Classical Vocal — Systematic Training with Swarnayan
These classes are designed for students who wish to study Hindustani classical vocal as a serious art form, combining rigorous technique with deep musical understanding. Guided by the teachings of my gurus [Pt. Pranay Pathak (Bishnupur Gharana)] and [Pt. Hariprasad Chaurasia (Maihar Gharana)], students develop a strong foundation and a refined, expressive voice.
What you will learn:
️Precision in swara (note) intonation and pitch control
️️Voice culture, breath support, and tone refinement for a resonant, flexible voice
️️Mastery of meend, gamak, kan, and other essential ornamentations
️️Understanding raga grammar, chalan, and mood (bhaav) to express the raga authentically
️️Development of alaap and taan patterns, exploring improvisation with confidence
️️Tala awareness and foundational layakari (rhythmic intricacies)
️️Efficient, structured riyaaz techniques to progress steadily
️️Cultivating active listening, musical thinking, and immersive raga experience beyond rote memorization
Students are encouraged to internalize music as a living, evolving form, while building discipline, intuition, and creativity in performance.
With consistent practice, students can expect:
improved pitch accuracy and voice control
ability to present a raga thoughtfully
confidence in dhrupad and khyal performance format
disciplined riyaaz habits
deeper musical sensitivity and listening ability
preparation for exams, auditions, or performances
Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the teacher
Very patient and observant. He immediately catches mistakes in sur, fingering, and breath that others miss.
He understands bansuri physics and aesthetics both. My tone quality improved drastically after following his breathing techniques
As a beginner, I was afraid of classical music. Sir made it approachable, logical, and deeply enjoyable. My confidence has grown tremendously.
He doesn’t just teach bandish—he teaches how to think musically. His taan training and raga elaboration methods are exceptional and rooted in tradition.
Learning from Swarnayan sir is like learning music with scientific clarity. He breaks down ragas, voice culture, and riyaaz in a way that finally makes sense. My sur accuracy improved within weeks.
I've had an experience of his exquisite taste in music, both in Hindustani Classical, as well as in Contemporary music. He's very patient with his students of all levels and age
A must try for all those interested soulsI recommend Swarnayan for taking Flute classes. He excels in flute play and has a vast knowledge about Indian Classical Music. He also is good in teaching different techniques of playing flute.
Swarnayan has vast experience in hindustani classical music from early childhood, which he immaculately implements into his bansuri.
His bansuri emanates his deep rooted respect towards music
He has always been friendly towards children, tutoring them with a parental essence.

Excellent skills, supportive and motivating nature. Teaches the fundamentals with a lot of patience.
I am delighted to recommend Swarnayan as a flute teacher. With years of experience, a strong foundation in classical music, and an innate ability to connect with students, Swarnayan brings both technical expertise and deep musical sensitivity to his teaching. Swarnayan not only teaches the mechanics of playing the flute but also instills a genuine appreciation for the nuances of music.
