  2. Ruchika Arora Says:

    Friends,

    I know a very fast guitar teacher in pune near aundh area whose batch timing, fees structure and teaching strategy are different from other music classes and are very comfortable for IT professionals or candidates who are lacking of time. He knows all type of music notations (Indian, Western, TAB, Music Staff).

    I started to learn guitar as a beginner in last July and performed last week in my college programs independently and with confidence….!!! I can never forget this pleasure what I achieved first time on stage. Now I am able to play any random song I listen with timing and music professional.

    I really suggest you all to check with this person at least once because he is only the person who knows your need and can teach you in very short timing if you are really keen to learn music.

    If you feel your music teacher is very slow then just go there and check with this person and put up all your doubts related to music.

    His name is Chandan Saxena and you can contact him at 9960672319.

  3. Rahul Sharma Says:

    Friends,

    I want to share my personal experience about various MUSIC CLASSES in pune
    I went to 2-3 Music Classes for 1 or 2 months but after leaving those classes I found that I could play only three to four songs whatever my previous teacher put in my note book but in reality, I knew nothing to play on guitar and was dependent on my note book while I had so many classes and wasted a lot of time.

    After a long time, one of my friend advised me to visit a class located at Aundh-Khadki road and he gave me very good feed back of that class.
    I checked with the person (Chandan Saxena) who conducted the class there. He gave me a demonstration with guitar and told me about music and the way to learn guitar. He also told me about the different-2 learning areas in guitar and time required to learn them. He checked my music skills (Vocal sound and Rhythm) and then assured me to make a professional in very short timing.
    He is a Software Engg but conducting music classes only for those people who have passion about music but didn’t have time & source to learn in short duration. I joined him in mid of Aug-08 and started from scratch and now I am able to play any random song with the timing and magic of profession. I am very happy and satisfied with my current performance and now I feel I need no more teachers in my life. He gave me direction to learn what other couldn’t.

    I suggest you all, if your music class is Slow or Directionless and if you need such a good music teacher for synthesizer or guitar.
    Just contact chandan at 9960672319 and check with him your doubts, query or problems about to learn Guitar/Synthesizer if you have. You’ll definitely satisfied after his demonstration but meet him at-least once to know more music.

  11. Rashmi Gupta Says:

    Friends,

    I know a very fast and nice guitar teacher whose class structure is very flexible and comfortable for IT-Professionals or working persons and his teaching strategy is amazing…..!!

    As you all know that we all are very irregular person in our life and we can’t continue any of class more than 2-3 months and we want maximum output within very short duration.

    Last year I joined 3 classes in Camp, Kalyani Nagar and Fatima Nagar but due to busy schedule I left those classes after 2-3 months. In each class I got bore, achieved nothing and lost a lot of time.

    I was really keen to learn music on guitar but as per our profession I couldn’t continue any class more than 3 months and another thing I observed in previous classes was that, I felt uncomfortable with those classes the reason being that those music teacher used to take around 25-50 Students in every batch and couldn’t give personal attention on my progress, due to this reason only I got bore in all previous classes and after some time I got busy and left those classes.

    But one thing I observed in those teachers was that, although they were very professional but they were even more professional in earning and used very impolite words during the teaching.

    After some time I searched through google about fast guitar teacher in pune and got some review comments about Chandan Saxena who conducts Guitar & Synthesizer classes near Aundh, then I just dialed his no and went for demonstration class.
    I have no words to describe my experience of seeing that demonstration with guitar and his teaching way. The most surprising thing was, Chandan Sir is also a IT-professional and still he is taking music class from more than 16 years. He understands our actual need, limitations and our busy schedule.
    I was quite impressed to see his demonstration and teaching strategy which was totally different from other music classes.
    I decided to join this class, because this class was very flexible and comfortable for me because this class is being conducted by an IT-professional.

    I joined this class on last week of Dec-08 and till Feb end I could search any random song on guitar without any help. Now I am very thankful to Chandan Sir, for giving me direction through which my dream can true in 2 months only.

    I recommend you all to check with Chandan Sir at once if you really want to know music, whether you going somewhere else to learn music or not.
    Just call Chandan Sir at 9960672319 to inquire more about music and you may also give him my reference…
    Just go there and Rock On…..!!

  13. Sleuth Says:

    Hello,
    This Chandan guy seems so fake. It seems tht he’s gone through the trouble of creating fake names and experiences. The facts:

    1) All his students’ names start with an R
    2) It seems as if the same person has written all the 3 comments
    3) Even their problems are similar
    Mr. Chandan, PLS dont take us, the “NON-IT” populace to be fools
    THIS IS A FORUM FOR GENUINE DISSEMINATION OF INFO.

    Hi Sleuth,
    Your opinion is respcted and sure you are free to express it. But please have little more discretion while expressing it.

    Hey Friends,

    I had joined Dev’s acedemy for DRUMS and believe me my 3500 Rs were just washed away without even using it.
    They are the worst teachers of DRUMS…

    They ask you to pay all in advance and we have to share the electronic drum kit and the sir also teaches so slow and you have to wait until your turn comes.

    For all you DRUM lovers, please DO NOT Join Dev’s Academy near City Pride Kothrud…

    Dev, are you talking about chandan saxena?
    I heard he is really a bad guitar teacher
    he also did post lots of spam messages by different id (Rahul sharma, Rashmi Gupta etc, swar-udgam.blogspot.com)
    if its same chandan saxena, can you please ask that guy to post some of his best performance video’s on youtube and post link here, that way we can understand if he really is good teacher or not.
    if he cant do this, he doesnt deserve to put any advertise here or anywhere.
    I have seen so many guitar teachers taking lots of money and fooling people and teach nothing. Saraswati (The Goddess of Vidya) may never forgive such fools.

    The guitar is a musical instrument of the chordophone family.

    It’s a stringed instrument played by plucking, either with fingers or a pick. The guitar consists of a body with a rigid neck to which the strings, generally six in number but sometimes more, are attached. Guitars are traditionally constructed of various woods and strung with animal gut or, more recently, with either nylon or steel strings. Some modern guitars are made of polycarbonate materials. Guitars are made and repaired by luthiers. There are two primary families of guitars: acoustic and electric.

    Acoustic guitars (and similar instruments) with hollow bodies, have been in use for over a thousand years. There are three main types of modern acoustic guitar: the classical guitar (nylon-string guitar), the steel-string acoustic guitar, and the archtop guitar. The tone of an acoustic guitar is produced by the vibration of the strings, which is amplified by the body of the guitar, which acts as a resonating chamber. The classical guitar is often played as a solo instrument using a comprehensive fingerpicking technique. Electric guitars, introduced in the 1930s, rely on an amplifier that can electronically manipulate tone. Early amplified guitars employed a hollow body, but a solid body was found more suitable. Electric guitars have had a continuing profound influence on popular culture. Guitars are recognized as a primary instrument in genres such as blues, bluegrass, country, flamenco, jazz, jota, mariachi, reggae, rock, soul, and many forms of pop.

    Before the development of the electric guitar and the use of synthetic materials, a guitar was defined as being an instrument having “a long, fretted neck, flat wooden soundboard, ribs, and a flat back, most often with incurved sides”.[1] The term is used to refer to a number of related instruments that were developed and used across Europe beginning in the 12th century and, later, in the Americas.[2] These instruments are descended from ones that existed in ancient central Asia and India. For this reason guitars are distantly related to modern instruments from these regions, including the tanbur, the setar, and the sitar. The oldest known iconographic representation of an instrument displaying the essential features of a guitar is a 3,300 year old stone carving of a Hittite bard.[3]

    The modern word “guitar”, and its antecedents, have been applied to a wide variety of cordophones since ancient times and as such is the cause of confusion. The English word “guitar”, the German “gitarre”, and the French “guitare”, were adopted from the Spanish guitarra,[4] which comes from the Andalusian Arabic qitara قيثارةر [5] itself derived from the Latin word cithara, which in turn came from the earlier Greek word kithara (κιθάρα),[6] a descendant of Old Persian sihtar ( سی تار) (Tar means string in Persian).[7]

    Although the word guitar is descended from the Roman word cithara, the modern guitar itself is not generally believed to have descended from the roman instrument. Many influences are cited as antecedents to the modern guitar. One commonly cited influence is of the arrival of the four-string oud, which was introduced by the invading Moors in the 8th century.[8] Another suggested influence is the six-string Scandinavian lut (lute), which gained in popularity in areas of Viking incursions across medieval Europe. Often depicted in carvings c. 800 AD, the Norse hero Gunther (also known as Gunnar), played a lute with his toes as he lay dying in a snake-pit, in the legend of Siegfried.[9] It is likely that a combination of influences led to the creation of the guitar; plucked instruments from across the Mediterranean and Europe were well known in Iberia since antiquity.

    Can anyone help me to understand staff notations?
    If any of you know about the sheet notation and different symbols, please help me understand it…!!

    Please share your comments on this..!!

  81. amit Says:

    Snehal,

    This is meaningless notation, I have spent lots of time to understand it but got nothing. Even no one can teach you this boring language.

    I suggest you to go to TAB notation instead. this is very eassy to understand.

  82. abhi Says:

    amit, sorry you are wrong. staff notation is not difficult at all. only it requires basic regular practice for long time in the beginning. I personal know some korean professional guitar/piano teachers who can understand how it will sound like after reading upon a staff notation.

    snehal, find a good book / good teacher for learning staff notation. My advice to you is, consistent and regular practice of staff notation will make it incredibly easy and enjoyful.

    another thing is, one of my friend who used to be guitar learning enthu but got busy in work and now gone onsite, has left his guitar with me and wants to sell it.this is the guitar.

    please drop me a mail if interested

  83. abhi Says:

    forgot to mention

    I am available in Pune / Mumbai

  84. mohan Says:

    Yes, I am agree with amit, Staff Notation is worthless.
    As a beginner you can start with Indian notation ( Sa re ga ma..), Western Notation(Ab, A, Bb, B, C, C#…) or TAB.

    If you want I can personally teach you how to play songs on these notations..!!

    Abhipendse:- you can also try with these notations, I believe these are more comfortable than sheet notation.

  85. snehal Says:

    Mohan,

    I am agreed with your thoughts about music notations, If you don’t mind, can you teach me or give me some lessons using Indian notation whenever you are available.

  86. Jonah Says:

    As a beginner, there is absolutely no need to learn sheet music/notations.
    Start with some theory, chords and some major scales only.
    You can then start TABLATURE to read guitar music, which is extremely simple. Do spend 5-10 minutes thereafter every day to get acquainted with sheet music if you desire to pursue music sincerely. From this point on, you won’t need any one’s advice, you can make your own judgments.
