The show started late as per the IST so Swades theme couldn't be played :-(
leaflet with soloist interviews and track details were nicely done.
major disappointment before the concert was when I found out Flute Naveen has given this concert a miss and Navin Iyer to do the honors.
buy to my utter dismay in the name of improvisation 'cry of rose' was completely butchered by him :banghead: though sanity prevailed in Bombay theme..other than Navin's blemishes the show was exhilarating..once the speeches were done 2 hrs of complete unadulterated music..seems Babelsberg are trained to play movie scores but still to hear them play our music was a bit quirky. LOTR suite was the best and Kavita baliga nailed it :clap: AR somehow sneaked in to play Mausam/Escape with Asad Khan...was pleasantly surprised to hear Aayo re Sakhi from water in the end.
