MUSIKSHA Music Foundation eSWAR MUSiksha (4 year curriculum) Music comes naturally to everyone. But it is not triggered in most people at the most crucial point in their lives. Especially in one’s childhood, he or she can easily cultivate a music habit. Everyone can sing if given the right amount of push along with an atmosphere to learn & sing.
With the above objective MUSpace India Pvt ltd wishes to launch music as a part of curriculum for children of classes 2nd till the 5th. The major issues for the parents in getting the children close to music are as follows:
Proximity of teachers
Taking the child to a music school & fetching them back
Thus we wish to take music to the children through the school in a structured format with training aids provided to the teachers through music professionals and also practice tools to the children for a closer follow up by the teachers. The practice tools created have been

Affordability
developed in attractive colours in printed & digital formats. These have been tested out with children & their attention span and registration has been really encouraging. All of the above is provided at an affordable price to reach out wide across the state.
We are sure that with the support of the school management we will be in a position to trigger the interest of the child in the area of music which takes them away from fear & stage inhibitions.

professionals speak Shri Neyveli Santhanagopalan, Accomplished vidwan, inspiring guru & innovative educator. Ancient man had the privilege of listening only to the tone, note and rhythm. As the proliferation of race, he was able to visualize the (notations – swarasthanam) sound/tone/rhythm pave way to notations. This is just a 300 year old phenomenon, which was not in vogue even during the days of Music Trinity period. As the natural process, all new methods will be put to test through resistance, the notation survived the test of time. To substantiate, all the music doyens in the contemporary era have advocated the notation system and propagation of music has happened through this mode from generations to generations to all walks of people who have devoted their disposals to the cause of music. We see everything in the world full of colors in all walks of life. The concept of bringing colors to the notations make it easy and interesting for the music learners/aspirants to decipher the nuances of (3 dimensions of) music, i.e., sruthi, ragam, thalam, is something worth commendable. This is the need of the hour. I am saying this only as it has already arrived through the thoughts of MKC and Eswar team. We have to necessarily embrace new methods, patterns and technology to take it to next generation music learners/aspirants. As a vivid/power user of technology in my domain of music, as a practicing professional, as a performer and as a global teacher for teaching this wonderful art form to the shores beyond Indian boundaries. Music is a SCIENCE. Music education should also embrace scientific methods to propagate. Everything is subject to change but not time tested process and methods. Kudos to team Eswar headed by MKC for coming out with such a unique process to provide orientation and sync of swarasthanam and thalam in the visual form through this Eswar Musiksha.
Padmashri Shri Vikku TH Vinayakram, Ghatam maestro & Grammy award winner I saw the MUSIKSHA MUSIC SCHOOL LEARNING kit created by ESWAR. This is an extremely useful tool. Moreover, for beginners of music, I feel that this would be a great value addition. I sincerely pray to Sri Sri Maha Periyava for the success of this concept.
Shri O.S Thyagarajan, Accomplished vidwan, inspiring guru I have been associated with ESWAR family since many years. They have introduced a new system for learning carnatic Music for young children. I have viewed the CD and the booklets which have been brought out very successfully. I am confident that this project will be of utmost use in schools and colleges. I wish ESWAR all success all over the world.
Bharat Sundar, Performing professional Winner Carnatic Idol Sr. Honestly, a great concept by ‘ESWAR’ not just for the starters but also for amateurs and performers. Vocalization is a very important aspect in any form of music since all boils down to communicating. In carnatic music, the VARISAIS are designed not only to teach the swarasthanas but also to impart the ‘How To Sing’ factor. This is one great step in promoting our own music and structure the way of learning. WAY TO GO! CHEERS to the entire team.“More to come from ESWAR”
