About 30 years ago I started a Singing group along with enthusiastic friends. We figured if we can get together to play cards, gossip, cook why not to sing?
We were about 8 of us. Aunty Gopi joined us 6 months later and trained us to sing while she accompanied us on the harmonium. She was more than a teacher. She was a friend to each and every one of us. All confided in her and she held everyones' secrets close to her heart and urged us to sing....
She passed on and some of our friends passed on...but we persevered...God sent us teachers and good singers along the way...Meenu Gidwani joined us and urged us to improve...though all of us were amateurs people continue to flock to our bhajan kirtan and claim that we are very good...I think we are not great singers but we sing from the heart and touch the listeners'
Today we have been joined by 3 beautiful enthusiastic singers. Sapna, Bhavna, Aarti...and God maybe want us to go on and on ...
