His initial musical training was under his uncle Chikka Subba Rao, and he later studied under and was greatly influenced by Veene Sheshanna. He was also exposed to western classical music by the director of the orchestra maintained by the Maharaja, and later compiled a collection of Carnatic classical compositions rendered using the western musical notation.
