Our daughter has been taking piano lessons with Dr. K for the last 5 years. His medical background and understanding of physiology allows him to craft piano lessons specific to our daughter to maximize effectiveness and create an enjoyable learning experience. We are grateful for Dr. K.'s genuine interest in having our daughter obtain the most from piano and appreciate how he encourages her to seek excellence.. - Chris, parent

Dr. Kalyan is a phenomenal music instructor. My son has been a music student of his, for the past three years. With Dr. K's piano tutorials my son has grown exponentially in his musical repertoire! Dr. K's professional approach has benefited my son immensely! My son has learned the language of music, he can read music pieces, he can play by ear and he has begun to write his own songs for entertainment. I am thoroughly pleased, and extremely impressed with Dr. Kalyan’s work, and the musical direction patiently expressed in each music lesson session. - Mishele, parent

Both of our children have been taking lessons with Dr. Kalyan for 3 years combined. Their progress and results have been fabulous! Dr. Kalyan spent time understanding our children's learning styles and interests, combined with teaching the kids the history, nuances and subtleties of each musical selection; as such the spirit of the music comes to life and our kids are excited to learn more. Dr. Kalyan is a wonderful teacher. Our kids really enjoy his teaching and have excelled! -Julia, parent

“…stunning arrangements” - Dr. Jim Friemen, Former Director of the San Diego Master Chorale

I have known Kalyan for over thirty years as a musician and friend. I have used his voice and his vocal harmony groups for both songs and background music in many films under my musical direction. His voice is able to reach very high registers like a soprano which gives him a wide range and flexibility. Kalyan can hear harmony and is able to arrange for voices without the help of any instrument and achieve perfect sound. - Illaiya Raja

Unbelievable value, precious, indeed a treasure. He could tell the note from listening to a horn or a rain drop or keep the beat listening to the windscreen wipers and he knew how to start and finish irrespective of the place, weather ,time of day or just anything.... everything in time and in harmony….that’s why love can be like that...You get healed just listening to him ....so lets all get healed because I believe in music I believe in love and Kalyan. - Usha Uthup, singer

Dr. Kalyan, a musician incomparable, who can weave a million hues on ebony and ivory and make harmony with 4, 8 or 40 voices in the wink of an eye, and give a high to both the performer and the listener…Adventurous and creative to the core….I cherish the days I worked with him which had an enormous influence over me. - Augustine Paul, Music Director Madras Musical Association

Kalyan, a doctor by profession, and a musician at heart. A rare genius, with a panache for harmonies. It has been an honour to have had him as my mentor and inspiration. - Dr. Sunil Paulraj, President Toccata Musical Productions United Kingdom
