Conclusion

    As per the online survey and the experience, the virtual mode of teaching music is not so much deliberated as physical appearance classes. It is not effective and so meaningful for beginners because they are not aware of proper ear tuning and the commendable voice perfection in any scale or the notes of Raga. Musical nurture is only possible with one on one learning but it might affect but still can guide the students in theatrical part and the technique of practice if the learner is in advanced classes.

      The advanced level class can achieve 40-60 percent goal in practical aspect only with one on one learning in virtual mode. But the quality may decrease by adding the number of students either in theory or in practical classes. Thus E-learning and teaching are only formalities with no outcomes for the beginners and can be helpful to guide the students of advanced level in both theory and practical. It is nothing than the virtual blur if the students are left behind in virtual modules for teaching music in colleges and Universities. It might create a long-term impact and deteriorate the quality and real essence of learning Music and also drive us to the non-aesthetical world.
