OctavesOnline was conceived by like-minded people who felt a strong urge to take India’s wealth of knowledge in music to the online space.With busy schedules, commuting issues and various other day to day problems,attending music classes in person was challenging. One plausible solution was to retain the “Guru-Sishya” construct while tapping video based technology to deliver online classes.Another format of recording musical content online and delivering it in our channel was also well received.
Our vision is to provide affordable access to music education in both vocal and instrumental music.Our strong network of well qualified and experienced teachers is helping us realise this dream.

Thanks to OctavesOnline for giving me a fantastic Violin teacher. Teacher is patient and encouraging. What is most inspiring is the humility despite having such proficiency on the subject matter. Lessons are customised based on students capablity and their objectives. Definitely recommended!
OctavesOnline classes gave me an idea about real music and how to perform and practice with scales and all through online classes. Today I can perform with any vocalists and play any song I hear. I stay in Norway from where I take online classes through OctavesOnline. The quality of teachers present in this platform is exceptional. I recommend this platform to all music enthusiasts.
I simply love this teacher and the sweetness of her voice and simplicity. I am 65 and I am learning from her. Her approach is very appealing and helps students of any age group learn better.
I have been associated with OctavesOnline for more than a year now and I appreciate all the efforts that OctavesOnline make for bringing the required course easier with great quality. I got more than what I was looking for and gathered so much information and confidence towards my objective.Thanks to OctavesOnline!
Well the search for a best music or instrument teacher specially a Veena teacher ends here!!! I had a lovely experience and still have great fun and excitement learning. its just been 4 months since I started learning Veena with OctavesOnline but still the learning is endless and it goes on with lots of creativity,fun and enthusiasm. The teacher really helps you develop the passion and interest around the instrument which makes learning fun with great quality.
Very apt way of teaching rather, the ideal way.... Thanks for the effort. It is a foregone conclusion that this is going to be the most sought after channel for its simplicity & to the point teaching for beginners like me. 🙏
Writing this review after performing live with 4 different songs.. I was a beginner in music with many questions on how to start. Was trying to sing along with many videos but failed many times. I started with Online lessons and Vocal teacher from OctavesOnline helped me on building up foundation. Teacher encouraged me to try not to get booged down y hurdles. I was far away from the teacher in Atlanta in different time-zone and was learning online. Initially I thought it will be difficult but believe me it was same like attending in person without commuting. I am really fortunate that I got a teacher like you. Thanks to OctavesOnline for understanding my requirements and provisioning online classes.
