“I came to know about this program at the last minute and I was really looking forward to it. I am a music person and the program was amazing. We really enjoyed it, and I was also talking to the organiser. From next time, we plan to bring more crowd here because there is a big community in this area. We will definitely make it more successful. This program was really amazing — all the artists were unbelievable, really rich and very good. I think this is positive feedback for people to join our events. I was also discussing that social media and networking are very important to build awareness because there is a big community in this area. There is another separate program going on currently, so not many people could attend this time. But we will plan better, spread the word, and when a new event comes in, we will definitely have a more successful event next time. Thank you so much.”

Hello, everybody. This was a beautiful event. From start to finish, I enjoyed every bit of it. The music was good; the blurbers were good. Obviously, I needed to know one of the instruments I couldn't recognise, which is the Sarangi. And it was very, very positive for me. It has been my special day. So this fitted in with the bell, Beautiful. I enjoyed it. Thank you.

Listen to piano, tabla and guitar together in a jugalbandi, and then to listen to slide guitar and tabla in a jugalbandi. Amazing, Amazing. limited audience, perfect venue, perfect, perfectly organized. It was really, really wonderful. Even in today’s generation, there are children who are connected to classical music. They have their own likings, but they should also see this side of classical music, because watching live shows and watching live performances like this. I think they will understand it. The roots are here only. From this, it has come and moved to what they hear, what they watch, and what they go for. So, definitely they should, if they come and listen to this classical music. They can enjoy, They will enjoy, they will understand where it is coming from.
