I Dischi del 2025 secondo Ludovico Granvassu

Read "I Dischi del 2025 secondo Ludovico Granvassu" reviewed by Ludovico Granvassu

Karan Khosla

Born:

Originally educated as a physicist, Karan Khosla had a long career in finance and management consulting before transitioning into a completely different universe. Although he studied music while pursuing his degree in physics in the US, he could not fully pursue his passion until his early thirties. He financed his musical journey and further education while maintaining a full-time job, proving that passion knows no bounds. Karan has carved a niche for himself as a first-call session guitarist, composer, and educator for both local and visiting international artists. Based in the captivating landscapes of Goa, he benefited from nearly a decade of training under American jazz guitar luminaries Matt Warnock and Jonathan Kreisberg.
