Explore the Beauty and Benefits of Hindustani Classical Music with Lakshmi

House concert on October 3, 2026
Lakshmi Seshadri, trained in the Gwalior tradition under Vidushi Neela Bhagwat and mentored by renowned tabla player Ustad Surinder Mann, is now based in the Bay Area where she performs, teaches, composes, and writes about Indian classical music. She highlights the profound emotional and physiological benefits of raagas and encourages lifelong learning and authentic self-expression through singing. Lakshmi began her journey in music as a working professional and now shares her passion through lessons, workshops, and writings, aiming to connect people with this rich art form and its cultural roots.

With profound sadness, I paid tribute to my dear teacher and mentor Vidushi Neela Bhagwat in July 2026. Neelaji passed away on April 14 the same year.
