About Gopal
I come for a musical family background and grew up listening to music before I was even born. My father spent his entire life teaching music as a music teacher in highschool and colleges back in India.
I started learning tabla and later drums and other percussions at the age of 8 years and have been learning, teaching and performing ever since.
I am very passionate about playing and creating music. It gives me great pleasure to be able teach this art to a person who is willing to put in the work.
My father spent all of his life as a music teacher in India and now in Chicago even at the age of 80. I guess it runs in the family. 😊
I started my journey in learning the tabla at the age of eight. I was taught by my guruji from India in 1989. My first stage performance was with my father at the age of 10 and have been playing till this day with many Indian Bollywood singers.

I believe in building a strong foundation of the instrument by teaching its basics.
My youngest student is 4 years old who is learning to play the drums. My oldest student is 55 who is learning the tablas. There is no age limit to learn music but younger they start the faster they learn.
I think versitility is the key in music. One should be versatile in order to know the depth in music. Teaching techniques also plays a big role.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
How much time are you able to give for practice?
What is your objective in learning the instrument?
Are you committed for the long term or short term?

Perfect! GuruG is a great teacher. i have had weekly consistent lessons from him for about 6 weeks now and I am growing to learn tabla every day. He keeps you accountable and also has so much insight of every detail with tabla and rhythm in general. Thankful I met saw a raw teacher who can bring me back to the roots of indian music!
