"I believe that music is transformational to the young mind and that all students have the capability to become proficient in this craft. As a teacher of Indian Classical music, it gives me great joy to see my students pursue music with dedication and mindfulness and attain their true potential as musicians. Exposing and introducing Indian Classical music to the youth of this country is my contribution to the conservation and promotion of the rich cultural heritage of India." - Mitali Bhawmik
