πŸ‘πŸ‘ It is a true blessing to get a Guruji like Krishna sir, he takes extra efforts and makes sure that the true essence of each raag is delivered to the students in a simplified way . It is purely divine to sit and hear him singing. I personally felt that I have improved after joining his class.

    Tansen Academy of Hindustani Music is a renowned school for learning Hindustani Music in Chennai. In this academy we have teachers for both basic learning and also proficiency. The total family of Sri. Ballesh sir is dedicated and doing a great service in Hindustani Music. Large number of people are already learning from gurus belonging to this simple yet great music family.

    Tansen academy of music is the best place to learn Hindustani Classical Music in Chennai. Although I was new to classical music form when I started learning from Krishna sir but my interest grew with every single class, every single raga that I've learnt from him. I feel that students are given lot of attention and focus here. Also, the class consists of people from all age groups, experienced and talented people. So there was always lot to learn and I am happy that I was part of Tansen Academy.

    I am Priya , I have been a student of Krishna Sir for the past one year ...I kind of feel so blessed that for a person who lives in Europe I could get connected to such a wonderful online music lessons ( thanks to Corona in a way ) ...Guruji’s music and his presence is in itself a divine space we are blessed to be in ..Every time a raga is taught it feels it’s like a melodious performance from him but there is something that we also imbibe the essence of the music that is being taught ...His constant motivation and guidance is so inspiring....Such a down to earth and grounded person full of love and a great Guru we could ever dream of getting in this janma ...A wonderful blessing to be part of the Tansen music academy with Krishna Sir ...Immense gratitude and God bless him and his family πŸ˜‡πŸ™

    You are a good music teacher but more than that u are a fantastic actor so better start acting class along with this. Stop giving unnecessary buildups like you are the creator of the music. Painful to be a part of tansen academy. And please dont force us to give 5 star rating which is not acceptable. and dont try acting like an innocent person when you really know who you are. Feel like wasted my money and energy.. All the 5 start reviews are fake for sure.

    I was keen to learn Hindustani Music and I did learn under some at Chennai. But something was missing. However when I found Tansen Music Academy on Google and spoke to Guruji Krishna Baalesh, things changed. I knew I had finally found my sangeet guru...His devotion towards music and his dedication to teach is phenomenal! I am always amazed at these two of his qualities. In his class, I feel I am transported to a different world...It is filled with divinity, reverence, worship.

    Its a blessing to be a part of Tansen Academy & i find myself to be fortunate enough to meet Guruji-Dr. Krishna Bhallesh Sir & his whole family carrying the legacy of Music. Weekend classes at Salagram will take us to different level , forgetting ourselves. It is a meditative state we reach during the class hours. Here , you can learn how much you want to. Students from the age of 18-60 and more have the same enthusiasm to learn from Guruji. We hardly get such committed & dedicated teachers. Pls do experience the taste of Hindustani Music at this place if you are new to music. If you are trained earlier, then you can experience the quality of music in your fist class.πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™

    A life in music is a life beautifully spent and my beautiful musical journey started with Krishna Sir and the entire Tansen family. A humble prodigy and an inspiration to many :)He breathes music and he spreads that musical vibes to all of us. He reads the pulse of every student,identifies the strength of each student,teaches with so much of patience and enthusiam. I forget all my worries, the moment I step in into Sir's class.Thank you for being mentor for life and thanks for imparting musical knowledge in me.

    Tansen Academy of Hindustani Music is more than just a music school. The commitment and discipline with which music is imparted to students here is commendable. I deem it a blessing and privilege to have learnt music under the tutelage of legendary musicians, Ballesh sir, Krishna sir and Prakash sir. Every class is like a new musical experience and we look forward to it eagerly. I'm especially grateful to Krishna sir, because whatever little I know in music is because of his teaching and guidance. If you are passionate about music and want to explore the depths of Hindustani Music, then Tansen Academy is the right place for you.

    My 12 year old is learning Hindustani music(vocal) under the guidance of guru Shivanand Ballesh since 3 months. He is an amazing teacher. He makes the classes enjoyable and challenging . We love the atmosphere. He gives attention to each and every student and encourage them to push their abilities. I highly recommend this place (Tansen) who wants to learn Hindustani music regardless of their age or skill level.

πŸ‘ Highly recommend this place only for birthday celebration and for small functions.. This Hall is very less in space, but the dining Hall and the car parking is big.. It's very near to perungudi railway station.
