Dr. Chandrakant Sardeshmukh
Sitar Player and Indian Musician

Music for the young generation

Children are open to influences and sensitive to vibrations. Dr. Sardeshmukh's music sessions, based on the ancient Indian science known as Samaveda, enhance a child's natural creativity and allow greater levels of concentration and calmness.

According to research done recently at the Japan Brain Institute, it proved that
Dr. Sardeshmukh's sitar playing and his own strong alpha waves, synchronized with the other person increasing their alpha brain wave activity.

When the gentle Alpha brain waves increase, a state of creativity, deep relaxation and peace is experienced. Fears can vanish. It is the entry point into deeper states of awareness.

Research globally has shown that with regular music sessions some of the long-lasting effects have been improved performance at school with increased learning skills and better physical and mental coordination together with a happier outlook.

Music therapy has a long history, being mentioned in the Vedas. There is an age-old belief that Marga-Sangeet (Gandharva Gana) originated from Samaveda and has the power of striking a balance between mind and body and curing ailments.
