Sahil Dware

Rooted in Newa heritage. Shaped by the World Music.

Creating magic through Music Compositions — blending imagination, arrangement, and tradition to craft music that connects people. One melody, one arrangement, one story at a time, building a Rome for Sahil's music.

Portrait of Sahil Dwaré
How he got here

“From Newa Courtyards to the World Stage"

I started on a wooden flute & Dhime at Nine, learning by ear from my father and grandfather during Newa festivals and Jatra. What began as copying their phrasing turned, into a practice of setting old Newa tunes inside newer arrangements — flute,melody,vocals, then slowly, jazz harmony and instruments from far outside the valley.

"Sahil still teaches from that same Newa courtyards most weeks, and writes best late at night, after everyone gone quiet."

A Newari folk song passed down through generations in newa couryard, rebuilt around a slow flute arrangement and a single held vocal line. In 2026 its my first music video, made with JYASA Films & In 2025 it was my first live performance with my own vocals & Arrangement, performed at the KATJAZZ International Music Festival in Kathmandu 2025.

Sahil learning music at home
2012 — Started at Home

A wooden flute. A dhime. A Instrument.

Lessons from my father and grandfather, learned by ear during Newa festivals and Jatra.

I didn't knew where music would take me. I just wanted to play.

2013–2015 — Learning

Listening. Practicing. Mistakes.

I played again listening it getting played in JATRAS. Slowly, music became more than sound.

It became part of who I was.

2016 — Finding Others

Different instruments. Different voices.

I discovered ragas, classical music, and new musicians. Music became bigger when it was shared.

One rhythm.

2017 — Finding My Voice

What can tradition become?

I started asking questions. What can tradition become? What else can music say?

And somewhere between performing and teaching, I began finding my own sound.

2026 — Taking It Further

Five minutes of my music to life

MASHYUU PAHA became My first music video, made with JYASA Films — one of the biggest creative risks I have Ever taken.

Probably the biggest financial and personal commitment I’ve ever taken for my music.No promise of profit. No certainty of success.Just a belief in the music of something I have to create.

Sahil performing on stage
2012 → 2026

From a flute at home to stages around the world.

I learned to listen. I learned to play. I learned to create. And somewhere along the way,

Music is my life now, I choose to follow.

The next chapter is still unwritten.Follow me GUYSSSSSS....
