MehfilRadio - Internet Radio for the students and by the students

Before VCD DVD, video tapes television was the age of RADIO 
Radios in those days  allowed people to have news, music, and other entertainment at their fingertips . The best part of all, it was free as long as you could afford a radio.

Radios indeed revolutionized the world. Many things have changed in this fast paced world. We should be thankful radios still have place in our lives..

Waking up to a devotional Abhang or a classical by Kishori Amonkar on FM Rainbow which broadcasts marathi songs or enjoying pulsating breakfast show on radio Mirchi by Jeeturaj that most of mumbaikars listen to on their way to work or cuddling up in a bed with old melodies on Purani Jeans  By RJ Anmol.  Remember , they all have one common  powerful thing which suiths our heart , our senses  which makes us happy,share our joys or sometimes accompanies us when we are alone .That is Music!!!!

' After the silence that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is Music '!!!!!! So true.Music is unique.It surpasses all the boundries of religion and cultures

Well all this introduction was to tell you all about a site called http://www.mehfillive.com/   MehfilLive Internet Radio is an Indian Classical Music platform.

Lastly I want to conclude by saying  that the young , aspiring  minds away from Indian land  are learning ,promoting as well as popularizing the Indian classical form of music is worth appreciating. The elders are always blaming the younger genreation by saying that they dont value our rich Indian culture and forms of  music In such circumstances Mehfillive by Ashish Tare and team should be promoted and heard . Kudos to their team.

Please Note  that Shree Satish Tare who is also part of this team conducts Tabala classes in Bay area.

Satish has been teaching Tabla in USA for the last 10 years and has earned the reputation of being the most respected Tabla teacher among students based in Cupertino, San Jose, Santa Clara, Sunnyvale, San Francisco, Milpitas, Fremont, Pleasanton, Dublin and other nearby towns in the Bay Area of California. He has a large number of students from these regions, who are seriously learning from him.
