“I feel that what we have achieved in a short space of time is amazing. We are all new to this way of performing and have all gained a lot from it. Our teacher, Mohamed Assani, has been a great inspiration and introduced me to a whole world of music I may never have explored.”


Jeff Dale, Music Student

University of Huddersfield

“Two years ago Mohamed Assani started running a series of workshops for us in South Asian music with fantastic results. Mohamed has managed to cater for people with no experience as well as those who have been playing for a long time, from all sorts of backgrounds. I was amazed at the first concert we held at how far students had developed in a relatively short period of time. I never have to worry about the work he does as I know it is always going to be excellent. His knowledge of the music, of playing styles on various instruments, of how to approach performances and rehearsals is very strong and if you get the chance to work with him I recommend you grab it with both hands!”
