ALUMNI TESTIMONY
I am very grateful for the moments I have spent learning at KJC. It is a place where open-minded individuals come to learn and exchange their ideas and thoughts about music. The teachers are well equipped, cordial, positive, friendly and make sure you have an unique experience at the school. The blend of multicultural teachers, international and Nepali, adds depth to your understanding of the music and brings different perspectives and influences from around the world.

Pivotal to my experience of studying at KJC was getting to learn with Abhisek Bhadra, who incorporates his philosophy in approaching music education on a personal level. In understanding the student he is working with, he helps structure classes around the student, regardless of their background and previous learning experiences. For me personally, studying at KJC this time around taught me to disaggregate the way I write and compose my own music. He has helped me approach writing in a different light and to understand a theory-based logic on how and why the songs I have written have made their way here. Overall, it has helped me understand myself a little bit better and to say the least, learning from Abhisek Bhadra has been a revelation.

My experience at the Kathmandu Jazz Conservatory was nothing but joyous and has gone by faster than I would have wanted it to. Imbued with passion and a good taste for music, yet very welcoming and easy- going, the people there I learned from, studied and played music with were one of the best things to have happened to me.
