Namasté Deobrat & Defrabu, I love Indian classical music and since October 2003 I have been at all the concerts you played in Luxembourg. And now I have looked and listened to the 5 videos of this exceptional Indo-Jazz concert in October 2008. It is amazing. For me it is the best India meets Europe you ever played. I hope that next year I can live this concert again, and please with the same musicians, because they are all great. With thanks, Shivnankari
