Pianist and piano educator, teaching for over two decades, guided 500+ students into long-term musicianship and careful listening.
For those I haven’t met yet, a brief introduction.
I’m Tuhin Rao. I work as a pianist, piano educator, composer, and music technologist. I’ve been teaching piano for a little over 20 years, primarily through one-to-one lessons focused on long-term musicianship rather than quick results. I now have studios in Pune, India and Dubai, UAE.
My work spans classical performance, theory, composition, improvisation, and the thoughtful use of technology in music learning.
Over the years, I’ve worked with students across age groups and goals, from beginners discovering the instrument to advanced students preparing for diploma-level exams. The underlying approach remains the same: careful listening, clarity of thought, and patience with the process.
This space will reflect that work. You will find observations from teaching, reflections on practice, student journeys, and ideas around music and learning that tend to unfold over time rather than fit into short formats. In this post, I'm playing Chopin Nocturne in C sharp Minor
