Frequently Asked Questions

Can my child learn Indian film music from teachers in India while living in UK?

Yes. Artium's live 1:1 classes make it possible for children in UK to learn from experienced teachers in India. For families living away from India, it is also a way to stay connected to the music and traditions they grew up with.

Is online Indian film music suitable for children in UK?

Yes. Classes are live and personalised rather than pre recorded. The academic team assesses the child's current level during the free trial and recommends a suitable starting point.

Song based learning combined with vocal technique, pitch, rhythm, melody, expression and relevant Indian classical foundations.
