Musician

ram_mridangam

I am an award winning professional musician and educator who has performed in more than 500 concerts. I play the mridangam which is a percussion instrument used in Indian classical music.

I learnt mridangam from Shri T.R. Dhandapany and the legendary Padma Vibhushan Sangeeta Kalanidhi Dr. Umayalpuram K. Sivaraman. I also trained in singing Hindustani Dhrupad classical music with the renowned Padma Shri Gundecha Brothers and Ustad Niloy Ahsan.

I teach music to students across the globe with ages ranging from 3 years to 65 years.

Please email me at rramkr@gmail.com if you are interested in a performance or in learning music.

    Looks like you know him.

    I know a Dr. Bhuwan Agrawal, who went to university in USA with me and who lived in Raleigh, USA in 90’s. I think he is/was Motorola India Design Center, Noida, India. If the Bhuwan is the same Bhuwan, I will appreciate if you camn give his contact telphone no, email and address.

    Prabir – I was looking about Dr. Bhuwan Agrawal’s and got redirected to Ram’s blog. I know the person Ram is talking about in his blog. He is master in his subjects and I think he worked with IBM for long time in US. I have not met with many people like him in my professional career of 11 years. He did techning for sometime in my MCA school in Bhimtal, Nainital. If it’s same, you can connect to me through Ram and I should be able to help you to get his e-mail id.

    Thanks

    I didn’t do much. WordPress provides standard templates. I just used one of them. The only thing in the template that I made by myself is the picture in the header section. All other customizations can be done using what WordPress provides.
