Indian classical music is one of the finest music styles in the world, which has had a profound impact on people since the Vedic era. People adored and admired Indian classical music, and they were very curious to listen as an audience and learn as students. This paper discusses how Indian classical music was taught in the earlier days in the Gurukul system in ashrams, and as the days passed, a face-to-face institutional setup was arranged, and music was taught in such a format. Later, due to the emergence of technology and globalization, people started migrating to different places in the world, leaving their culture in their home country. After some time in the early 21st century, Non-Resident Indians who migrated from India for a better future, settling abroad, wanted to follow Indian culture and traditions, which they were missing. So, they decided to take the help of technology and feel at home by following their cultures and traditions. Music, being a part of Indian culture and traditional heritage, was also a favorite activity, which they want to keep with them by learning traditional music from India from their beloved gurus and teachers. This paper includes and concludes how technology gave a helping hand to people who resided abroad or away from their guru and pursued music enthusiastically. What are the benefits and challenges faced in learning through virtual mode in the initial stages of emerging technology versus now? Also, apart from the different software and apps developed for music learning, what are the latest developments in tools of learning through AI that will be discussed to make this review paper useful for future researchers regarding the application of technology in music art.
