Nad Music Institute aspires to bring forth the authentic form of Kirtan as practiced by Sikh Gurus through research and collaboration.

Since 2018, we are actively performing research on basic musical signatures in Guru Granth Sahib like Rag, Dhuniyan, Ghar etc. We offer specialized courses for learning traditional Sikh music under Master-Disciple tradition (Guru-Shishya parampara). In 2024, we organized a three-day International Kirtan Conference at Punjabi University, Patiala in which 25 research papers were presented by scholars from six different countries. The conference set a mielstone for research in Sikh musicology.
