This deters many youngsters from pursuing classical music seriously. There is also a preconceived notion that semi-classical or even fusion music is more appealing, acknowledged and heard on a larger scale. Often, one might want to convert a passion for classical music into a career, and this may seem daunting initially. The study and understanding of this art form also offers other benefits: it develops a sense of discipline, exposes one to poetry and literature, allows a deep grasp of Maths and much more. Like in any art form, it takes several years of intensive learning and practice to begin to understand its nuances. The beauty of Indian classical music is that it is unique in how it can depict one’s emotions, thoughts, and feelings.
