Basuri (Flute) Classes Begin: Expanding Newa Music Learning – Community Update
Weekly flute classes began, guided by Aryan and Suraj, creating another pathway for young people and families to learn Newa music.
Mid-November 2025 | Alliance Office, Victoria
Newa Guthi Victoria launched its weekly Basuri (flute) classes in mid-November 2025, creating another opportunity for young people, families and community members to learn, practise and connect with traditional Newa music.
The classes were guided by Aryan and Suraj, who shared their knowledge and skills with learners in a supportive and engaging environment. The program expanded Newa Guthi Victoria’s cultural learning activities beyond Dhime Baja, providing another pathway for community members to develop musical skills while connecting with Newa heritage.
The introduction of Basuri classes also created opportunities for younger generations to take an active role in learning and practising traditional Newa instruments. Regular learning and practice help ensure that Newa music continues to be shared, valued and appreciated within the community.
The classes became part of Newa Guthi Victoria’s growing cultural education program, alongside other music and cultural activities, providing community members with opportunities to develop skills while strengthening friendships and cultural connections.
This archive entry records the beginning of the weekly Basuri classes and the continued efforts of Newa Guthi Victoria to preserve, teach and promote Newa music and cultural traditions in Victoria.
