Testimonials
Radhika, mother of a Grade 5 Carnatic Vocal candidate Earley, Berkshire (UK)
Through these exams my daughter, and all the students, not only benefit from the practical exams but also, they get to know the culture of the music through preparing for the theory exams. We are so lucky to have these exams as they also help to spread this music to the next generation in this country.
Mukesh Edgware, London (UK)
I would like to thank PRSSV for teaching Tabla to my son and for the grading system which is OCN accredited and hence is recognised by schools and universities. The grading system also gave structure to my son’s Tabla learning and helped him to progress.
Abhinav Shankar Mishra, Professional Performing Artist (Kathak Dance) New Delhi (India)
The qualification of Grade 8 in Kathak provided by PRSSV Sangeet Examinations has given my CV and portfolio plenty of weightage allowing me to gain opportunities and offers under various universities such as LAMDA, RADA and Royal Central. This opportunity that PRSSV's exam has provided me has been extremely beneficial for my acceptance in HE.
