Gandharv Kendra is a school for teaching and promoting Hindustani Classical Music based in Chennai. It is an initiative to spread the fragrance of Hindustani Classical Music in the south, a bastion of the mighty Carnatic Music. 

The School strives to spread the awareness and fragrance of Raga Sangeet and its appreciation among the masses in the south (a bastion of the mighty Carnatic Music), and especially children, who are crucial for supporting the art and the future of students learning Hindustani Classical Music.

Gandharv Kendra offers classes in vocal music only for all keen learners irrespective of ones age, stage and background. Music classes will be held in groups and individual sessions, with lessons tailored for Beginners and advanced students, helping them grow at their own pace.

Classes will be conducted in the traditional Guru-Shishya Parampara which is based on individual focus and attention, as the art form takes time for an aspiring student to learn, grasp and imbibe the knowledge of Swars, Taal, and Raga.
