The Shala Fort Greene
The singing, chanting, and harmonium-playing that you know and love from Shala classes is directly influenced by the teachings of Ustad Gulam Mohammed Mirashi, affectionately known as “Uncle.” He is the seventh generation of his vocal line, drawing from the Agra Gharana as well as regional influences from his native Rajasthan. All lessons include scale work, philosophy, and call-and-response singing.
