 There's much to see here. So, take your time, look around, and learn all there is to know about us.  


Poojaa Shah Talwar, the founder of 247 Media Group LLC, is formally trained in Hindustani Classical Music and earned Sangeet Visharad from Gandharva Mahavidyalaya in Mumbai, India.  


Over three decades of her career in music, she is passing on her existing knowledge acquired from her gurus - Shri Vijay Singh Chauhan (of Gwalior Gharana),  Hindustani Classical guru - Shri A.P. Narayangaonkar,  Ghazal Maestro Jagjit Singh & Smt Geeta Prem.  


Poojaa also adds unique instruction plans and strategies to singing lessons which she has formed from her own experiences and practices over the years.  She creatively customizes  instruction to help develop a voice and enhance effortless singing.   

Her vision amplifies blending genres and bringing communities together for the love of music by creating new sounds and making Indian music a part of main stream music instruction and production in the west.  


She says  "I feel proud when my student falls in love with their own voice, as they listen to themselves again and again.  It is important to identify your own unique voice, render a popular or private composition in your own style and most importantly have fun singing and learning."
