Sayan Ghosh Academy: Fostering Classical Music Excellence
Personalized Music Learning
Sayan Ghosh firmly believes that music is best learned through one-on-one mentorship. At his Sayan Ghosh Academy, located in Kolkata, he offers offline classes at two branches: Dumdum and Konnagar (Hooghly district). These centers cater to students of all age groups, providing a personalized and friendly learning environment where each student’s needs and progress are carefully monitored.
