Learn to play the Sitar in a supportive and enjoyable environment and where you will be given opportunities to perform. People of all ages and backgrounds welcome. No prior knowledge of Indian music required.

The sitar is a plucked stringed instrument, originating from the Indian subcontinent. This instrument became popularly known in the wider world through the works of Ravi Shankar, beginning in the late 1950s and early 1960s.

PRSSV Sangeet College offers a fantastic opportunity to get hands-on experience with this wonderful instrument in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Students have the option to take recognised examinations as their skills and knowledge develops.
