Today we thanked the wonderful Radhika Balakrishnan for starting this ensemble, inspiring us to explore Indian Classical music, being so kind, patient and encouraging to us! Many of us have never had the chance to play music in this way, thank you so much for giving us this opportunity!
We had the absolute honour of these three amazing musicians coming on stage and playing with us, even playing some of our own instruments. These are memories we will cherish always thank you so much!
