The festival ended with the melodic touch of Vidushi Manju Mehta’s Raaga Charukauns, created by Pandit Ravi Shankar. And the alaap was followed by gaat in Rupak Taal and Abhirup Roy allied with his melodic tabla. His bayan brought a melodious end to the classical festival. “

” Abhirup Roy stole people’s heart with his tabla.
He made people applaud in Tehai for him. “

” Last is beat by the finger tips and the palm of the hand, Abhirup Roy shows at the concert a fascinating example of his vital energy and his virtuosity. Exciting how the tone color of the tabla developed under his fingers/hands – So inspiring and full of sparkling intensity”
