Completely unforgettable music that will stay with us for the rest of our days. And I understand that the combinations are unique as well, but that's a bit of a one-off for the meeting of these musicians, so that makes it even more special. So thank you very much for a wonderful evening. A massive pleasure. And thank you so much for organising this.

Hi, my name is Ravi. It's a great venue, great setting and great combination as well. So we had a very good time. It is really amazing that the artists came from India and we had local artists like Salil Tambe perform together. But they synchronized very well and kept the audience captive for a long time. It's really nice, we enjoyed it. It was really good. Thank you.

First of all, we have been so privileged to be able to listen to such fabulous music from such prestigious, wonderful, awesome artists. And the tabla, it was just like gliding. It was a dance on the tabla. It was fantastic. The maestro Akram Khan was just the world's best, I would say. And everyone, their Monsoon Raga was fabulous. The piano, sitar with piano is something we've never heard. So, thank you so much. Thank you for bringing these maestros to Norwich. Thank you. Thank you so much. It's an honor to host them here. Thank you. Thank you very much.
