Ravi Shankar hosted the meeting with rehearsals at the Ravi Shankar Institute for Music and Performing Arts (RIMPA).
 
 
Artistic Director
“A choir consists of many individuals who have to act as a team. A good concert can become a great performance if every single participant can bring his own personality to the mix.”
