About Rahul Gajjal
Rahul began his musical journey at a young age. His interest was sparked when he started playing kitchen utensils as a child, mimicking the beats of songs. Recognizing his innate talent, his parents gifted him a toy piano, and he began copying the demo tunes without formal training. This led them to enroll him in music classes, where he learned to play various instruments, including the harmonium and keyboard.
Rahul's dedication to music led him to pursue formal education at Furtados School of Music (FSM), where he trained under the guidance of Crystal, a teacher who understood his needs and helped him excel. Despite financial challenges, FSM supported him by providing access to pianos for practice. He passed the Trinity College London's graded music exams with flying colors and went on to perform at prestigious venues like NCPA, Shanmukhanand Hall, and NSCI Dome.
