About Satyanarayana
I’m a Carnatic music teacher with over 35 years of experience in both vocal and keyboard training. Though I studied B.Com, my true passion has always been music, which led me to complete a 7-year Diploma in Carnatic Music. I’ve taught in schools and offered home tuitions, working closely with children to build a strong foundation in classical music. My teaching style is calm, encouraging, and tailored to each student’s pace. Whether it’s vocal or keyboard, I focus fully on the Carnatic method—starting from the basics and guiding them steadily through each stage of learning.

Teaching Approach
With over 35 years of experience teaching Carnatic vocal music and keyboard, my approach is entirely personalized to each child. I spend time understanding their individual strengths and where they need more support. I believe children learn best when they feel encouraged, not pressured—so I never take a strict approach.
I focus on building a strong foundation from the basics. There are no shortcuts in music. Through regular practice and gentle correction, I help each student progress at their own pace until they gain confidence and clarity in what they’re learning. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with many children, and I’ve learned how to bring out the best in each one with care and consistency.
Carnatic Vocal Classes
For vocal training, I follow the structured path of Carnatic music using the recommended books. Classes begin with the basics—swaras, alankaras, and simple exercises—before moving on to geethams, varnams, and kritis. I ensure that students develop proper pitch (sruti), rhythm (laya), and a clear understanding of the compositions. Each lesson is built around steady improvement, and I always make time to repeat, revise, and reinforce what’s been learned.
Carnatic Keyboard Classes
My keyboard classes are also rooted fully in Carnatic music. Students learn to play using swaras, just like in vocal training. I teach them how to map each raga and composition onto the keyboard, helping them understand the structure of the ragas, rhythm cycles, and how to bring out the Carnatic feel even on a modern instrument. The classes are hands-on, gradual, and always adapted to how the child learns best.

Sir teaches with immense patience and dedication. His remarkable experience with keyboard sets him apart. He makes learning an enjoyable and enriching experience for all the age groups and always encourages his students.
Satyanarayana sir has been a great vocal music coach for my daughter. He is very patient and customized the teaching according to the students pace.
Even after we moved to the US, he has been supportive through online classes. He is also registered with TAANA as vocal instructor.
My kid is super happy with the teaching and is also appearing for level 1 exam under the guidance of Satyanarayana sir.He is punctual, takes interest in students. Has good knowledge of classical ragas. Can teach seniors also. Good in vocal and instrumental. Teaches online, even US students
Very good teacher....the way he teaches is awesome..teaches complex things in simple and easy way....
He is very passionate about his profession. He has lot of patience to deal with all types of students. He is reachable.
As far as I am concerned he is par excellence in musical fields such as karnatic hindustani vocal instruments and he is able to guide his students as a true acharya. May goddess Saraswati bless him and his students.
He is trustworthy because he is simple and talented. Has a very fine authority over whatever he teaches. He is humble and interested in teaching what he knows so that everyone gets a good grasp of the subject he teaches. I wish him all the success in his endeavour. God bless him.
Sir is a well qualified and patient teacher. He has a lot of patience and will identify the skills of each person and work on the weaknesses.
The teaching methods are easy and understandable
No pressure he makes learning incredibly fun.
I will highly recommend Mr Satyanarayana to anyone who is passionate about learning music.
He has a very high patience level and knows how to get someone to love music rather making it seem like a task for the children. He is amazing :)
