Best Hindustani Classical Music Lessons in Waltham, MA

My daughter has been learning Hindustani classical music from Neelima since she was just 5 years old, and the journey has been nothing short of incredible. Over the 12 years, Neelima has not only nurtured her musical skills but also instilled in her a deep appreciation and respect for the art form. Her teaching style is both patient and inspiring, balancing tradition with encouragement. She understands how to bring out the best in her students, helping them grow with confidence and discipline. My daughter’s love for music and the progress she has made are a true reflection of Neelima’s dedication and passion. We are truly grateful for the guidance, mentorship, and care she has provided all these years. A wonderful teacher and an even more wonderful person.

Neelima ji is very learned teacher. Her teaching style is very friendly with students. Her knowledge about music great. We have heard good words about her from our close friends. I will also recommend her for other students. She is ready to tech students some extra other than vocal classes like harmonium. We are so much satisfied with her talent that we are ready to come extra mile to take her class.

I had the privilege of learning Hindustani classical vocal music from Neelima Chaturvedi for over a decade (age 5 to 18). What began with simple alankaars evolved into a deep, rewarding journey through complex Raags. I learned to sing in several different styles, including Khyals, Taranas, Dhrupads, Thumris, and Bhajans to name a few. She is a more than just an incredible teacher; she is knowledgeable, patient, and deeply passionate. She pushed me to grow while always making the learning process joyful and meaningful. Her guidance shaped not just my voice, but my appreciation for the art form. I had my Manch Pravesh at age 18 and it was the culmination of everything she taught me, and a moment I’ll always cherish. I’m endlessly grateful for her mentorship and would recommend her to anyone serious about learning Hindustani classical music.

Respected Neelima ji, Vidula and Arushi presented Kabir Bhajan at ISW. Everyone enjoyed appreciated and it. Thank you so much. We deeply appreciate all wholehearted efforts you put in to motivate girls to give the best effort for continuous improvement using their inherent strengths.
