Kamal Ahmad

Kamal Ahmad’s musical journey began with tabla before he was introduced to sitar by his elder sister. He soon sought out formal training under the guidance of sarod maestro Arnab Chakrabarty, who later introduced him to sitar virtuoso Vinayak Chittar and scholar-vocalist Pandit Arijit Mahalanabis. Despite starting his musical training later than most, Kamal’s relentless dedication and critical approach to learning enabled him to make rapid progress. His intense focus on efficient methods allowed him to overcome the challenges posed by his late start and become a proficient sitar player.

Kamal's pursuit of excellence extends beyond his own performance. His approach to teaching raga music is shaped by his continuous desire for self-improvement, instilling in his students the same analytical mindset that has propelled his own growth. As a teacher, he emphasizes the importance of constant refinement, encouraging his students to engage critically with their practice. Kamal’s journey is a testament to the power of discipline, passion, and the drive to evolve, regardless of when one embarks on their musical path.
