About This Opportunity

The Kala Bharathi Diploma Course in Instrumental Music is offered by the Bengaluru Kendra of Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan through its cultural wing, Kala Bharathi. Learners can train in a chosen instrument such as veena, taught by a dedicated guru at the Race Course Road campus.

The diploma is structured into graded junior and senior levels, combining practical instrument training with music theory. Classes are conducted in person on weekends, allowing school-going children to take up serious instrumental training alongside their academics.

Teaching is led by experienced vidwans and gurus associated with Kala Bharathi. Theory and practical examinations are conducted by external examiners, leading to diploma certification, while learners may also pursue the classes purely for personal enrichment.

The keyboard stream uniquely combines Carnatic and Western music, while the percussion and string instruments follow traditional methodology, all within Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan's wider mission of nurturing Indian classical arts.
