Stanley's music is poetic. One quickly realizes that he is not just laying out the rhythm, the harmony or the melody - he is speaking to you in a language that everyone understands. He speaks of happiness, of love, of longing, of sorrow; if you think about it, these are emotions that we often lack words to describe. Thank God, there is music.

Stanley was born in India. At the age of three he discovered that he could play any tune on the "bulbul tara", a stringed instrument that has keys instead of frets. That was the beginning of his musical journey

One of his mentors said:

"You did so well getting to the center of the dart-board (what was asked for) with all three dart throws (pieces). It's hard to get so close to what was asked for. This shows wisdom. I think you are ahead of the game in that area."
