The Heartbeat of Swarshree Music Foundation
In the early days of March 2015, a dream took shape. Shree Namdeo Shinde launched the Swarshree Music Foundation, not just as an institution but as a heartbeat of classical music. His dream? Simple yet profound: to spread the magic of classical music across all ages, making it accessible, loved, and lived.
The essence of Swarshree is not just about learning the notes but feeling the rhythm in every heartbeat. It’s a space where people, young or old, don’t just learn music but live its every pulse, cherishing its age-old beauty.
Taking a page from the illustrious Savai Gandharva Sangeet Mahotsav, Swarshree doesn't just teach; it empowers. It gives every student not only the skills but also a stage, a spotlight to shine, and an audience to inspire.
With each passing day, as melodies get woven and dreams take flight, Swarshree stands as a beacon of hope and inspiration, echoing the timeless charm of classical music and the dreams of its founder.

Guru Shree Namdeo Shinde: A Life in Classical Cadence
Born on June 22nd, 1976, in the village of Yeoti within Tuljapur Tehsil of Marathwada Prant, Guru Shree Namdeo Shinde demonstrated an early affinity for music. While his raw talent was evident in the school dramas and musical showcases, formal instruction remained out of reach during these formative years.
In pursuit of refining this innate talent and seeking structured education, in 1993, Namdeo Shinde relocated to Pune, Maharashtra's burgeoning cultural hub. This relocation proved pivotal. By the year 2000, Namdeo's dedication and endeavors led him to cross paths with the esteemed Pandit Sudhakar Chavan, the revered secretary of the Akhil Bharatiya Gandharva Mahavidyalaya. His musical journey had seen him perform at globally recognized platforms, one of the most notable being the Sawai Gandharva music festival.
Recognizing the potential in Guru Shree Namdeo Shinde, Pandit Chavan undertook his mentorship, forging a strong guru-disciple relationship that transcended basic pedagogical norms.
Guided by Pandit Sudhakar Chavan's rich expertise and grounded in relentless practice, Shree Namdeo Shinde attained the Alankar degree from the prestigious Akhil Bharatiya Gandharva Mahavidyalaya in Mumbai.
Today, Guru Shree Namdeo Shinde stands as a testament to the tenets of dedication, rigorous training, and the profound impact of mentorship in the world of classical music.
