Musica est aeternum

Rahel Shekhatkar is a multi-talented award-winning musician from Pune India. A Trinity certified musician in Drums, Piano, Violin, Guitar, and Western Vocals, Rahel is an accomplished teacher in musical education.

​

A passion for learning music and fine arts coupled with a lack of teachers within her reach were major motivators that led her to develop her skills in the field of music. Today Rahel has achieved a great deal in a short period and continues to upskill herself to enable her personal and artistic growth.

Her 20+ international certificates in music education at the young age of 23 are no mean feat and demonstrate a drive and fervor second to none that has led her to educate herself in the field of music and arts. She is also a trained Kathak Dancer and has cleared Kathak Exams from the prestigious Akhil Bhartiya Gandharva Mahavidyalaya Mandal. She also spent time as a disciple of Pandit Rajkumar Barshikar an acclaimed exponent of the Kirana Gharana, learning finer aspects of Hindustani Classical music.
