Amid Lockdown, music lovers can continue to learn classical music with Music learning app Riyaz
Though much of the life’s activities has been put on hold by the current lockdown, RIYAZ app is encouraging music lovers to use this time to learn classical music and hone singing skills.
Riyaz, available both on Google Playstore as well as Apple’s App Store, enables people to learn classical and popular music in its entirety anywhere, anytime. Riyaz provides instantaneous feedback for learners to practice singing to perfection and has eliminated challenges of stepping outside the home to seek feedback.
Riyaz comes packed with well-curated courses and hundreds of practice lessons that serve both beginners and advanced learners in Hindustani and Carnatic classical music traditions, along. The app is also packed with necessary tools for singing such as Smart Tanpura, Breath monitor and Vocal monitor. Social features such as song feed and leaderboards make learning to sing fun and engaging.
“At Riyaz, we believe that quality music education must be accessible and affordable to every aspirant out there in the world.” Gopala says. He founded Riyaz with Prof. Xavier Serra who heads Music Technology Group in Barcelona, Spain. “Many of us have been bathroom singers and shied away from formal learning owing to challenges associated in learning music. Riyaz has eliminated those. A million plus learners on our android offering is a resounding testament to this!” says Gopala, a PhD holder in Music Technology.
The content on every music style on Riyaz is deep and allows music lovers to stay engaged on learning for a long time without any interference on feedback, correction and guidance as the app’s modules are laid out in a step-by-step instructional mode that makes it easy for users to learn music.
“Music learners have expressed immense interest to continue learning classical music on Riyaz during this lockdown. “We believe that music connects us all, and we are proud to share this philosophy with students and anyone who wants to learn singing and provide support to them at this difficult time of lockdown.” says Anil Kumar Alaham, Co-founder and head of marketing and partnerships at Riyaz.
With beautifully visualised screens and a highly resourceful feedback system on Riyaz, becoming a professional singer or even honing the skill as a hobby singer, is a boon for people especially during the lockdown.

Investigations revealed at least 20 complaints from various states, including Madhya Pradesh, West Bengal, Maharashtra, Chhattisgarh, Assam and Meghalaya.
The arrested accused were identified as Mohit Kumar, Puneet Kumar, Vardaan, Anuj Kumar and Akshay, besides the two women.
