Description

I like to hear from you

In this episode, Ritesh Das explores the often overlooked art of listening—through the lens of a tabla class.

From childhood instinct to adult distraction, from classroom interruptions to moments of deep focus, he walks through how real listening is not just a musical technique—it’s a life skill.

Drawing from decades of teaching and a story from his own guru Shankar Ghosh, Ritesh shows how listening with full attention can lead to joy, growth, and clarity—on the drums and in life.
