Alive Center in Naperville
We are proud to bring you the opportunity to learn from world-renown Indian Classical guru Pandit Sandip Burman!
Sandipji is a native of Durgapur, India. His love and dedication of tabla began at age 6 when he began learning 
from Shri Sudhir Roy and later he became a student of the late distinguished tabla master, Pandit Shyamal Bose of Calcutta. Sandipji’s performances are marked with spontaneous innovation and tonal purity while delivering complex rhythmic patterns (tala) or melody (raga).
He has led his own world-tours and in different circumstances, he has filled in the spot as a side artist for foremost Indian musicians such as Pt. Debu Chaudhuri, Pt. Jasraj, Smt. Laxmi Shankar, Pt. Hariprasad Chaurasia, L. Subramaniam, Pt Chitresh Das, Pt. Ravi Shankar and performed on GRAMMY-winning albums and Hollywood movie scores with Western artists. Performances include such venues as the Ali Akbar Music College Festival, the Monterey World One Festival, the San Francisco Asian Museum of Art, the International Bengali Conferences in L.A. and Philadelphia, the Getty Museum (L.A.), Street Scene (San Diego), Nelson Atkins Museum (Kansas), Telluride Bluegrass Festival (Colorado), Stern Grove Festival (San Francisco) and Wolf Trap (Washington D.C.).
