“”To be a student of music is to speak a the language of sound. I believe that Indian Raga Music is an immersive philosophy in the realm of sound, and an exercise in freedom and beauty through the intricate trails of order and harmony. I am lucky to have an instrument that guides me, that coaxes the best out of me, that battles with inertia and yearns to express. Without the Sitar, I am incomplete.”

“To act is not to pretend, but to empathise so fully, that there is no distinction between the person I play and the emotion I become a medium for. “

-Neha Mahajan

While pursuing her master’s degree in philosophy from the University of Pune, Neha wrote her thesis on Nature of Meaning in Music, thinking about connections in Indian Philosophical concepts of meaning, language and music.
