This is an amazing class. Rahul is great at teaching sitar to students with any amount of experience. For this course, you have to attend class for two hours a week, and practice independently for about 1.5 hours a week (the sitar, mizrab, and oil are provided). There are 5-10 students in each class, so there's a lot of one-on-one time. As a science major, I never imagined that I'd be playing the sitar in college, but this class has made me determined to continue playing the instrument.
