  • Since

    2011

Founded in February 2011, The Majolly Music Trust is the realization of a long cherished dream of Founder-Director Neecia Majolly. With fellow trustee Read more Rajendra Chaturvedi (CEO of Theme Piano Company), the Trust is committed to the highest standards of music performance and teaching. Based in Bangalore (out of the Founder-Trustee’s residence in K G Halli, with a branch in Whitefield), the Trust offers training in piano and voice with one of the best teaching faculties in the country, besides training aspiring music teachers, promoting young talent, creating scholarships, and organising concerts and competitions (on a national level) to promote and encourage music. All proceeds go towards its Outreach programmes for underprivileged children and our unique PENSION FUND for aged and infirm musicians, believed to be the first of its kind in India.
