Hindustani Classical Music

I am an aficionado of Hindustani classical music. I am a harmonium player and got my initial training from my father Shri Avinash Velingker from age 4. I am currently undergoing vocal training from Dr. Pravin Gaonkar.

I have also learned some tabla, having had the opportunity to receive training from Shri Rohit Mujumdar and Shri Aditya Kalyanpur.
