Aim of the Blog

 
 
I aim to exhibit my talents and search for new ones  by making a note of activities I am involved in on this blog. Readers can expect posts about - Indian classical music (Hindustani Vocal), English, Marathi and Sanskrit literature, Indian and Japanese culture etc - all based on my understanding - a few drops that I have managed to grasp from these oceans of knowledge and joy.

About the Writer




 Hello readers,

This is Ambika Kamat, a student from India. I am into Indian Classical Music (Hindustani Vocal). I perform in concerts and for events (may it be a small 3 minute invocation song or a recital). I also take sessions on the same which are preliminary and introductory in nature usually meant for students and common people, who have not taken any formal training in the field. An example of which could be sessions taken for Swedish students under the Students exchange programme between Chowgule College, Goa and Gymnasiums from Stockholm, Sweden.

 

I also write articles, short stories and poems in English and Marathi. Some of them have won prizes in competitions and also have been published in local newspapers and magazines.

 

I am a part of Students exchange programme (2012) between Chowgule College, India and Waseda University, Japan.
