Siva has been a very good friend for about 20 years and I now have the honor of being Sarang and Vivaan’s music teacher. We frequently have very high levels of discussions during their lessons, stemming from their love of music and of learning. Siva and Aarti are both outstanding parents and educators. I can think of no better people to have written this book. The input of all four cannot help but result in an outstanding work on an important facet of education.
