i can think of two other films which had music lesson scenes. one is john schlesinger's madame sousatzka (1988)- the film highlights on the relationship between a music teacher (shirley maclaine) and her brilliant 15 year old, indian born pupil manek sen (navin chowdhury). The other film is satyajit ray's home and the world - where in his passionate drive to instill western culture in his wife (bimala), nikhilesh arranges for a music teacher. the scene is remarkably poignant in context of the film.
