On the 14th April, by some twist of fate, I happened to get transported to a place; I otherwise wouldn't be caught dead in. OK, yes I am musically inclined and love all kinds of music, but when you're in the midst of an audience, except that one kid who was coerced into coming with his parents, that is many generations past your parents too, you're in the wrong place. I believe music has got to do a lot with ambiance and audience. And if a musical evening is only attended by grey haired listeners, people like us, who do appreciate music, are going to be put off.
Anyway the high point of the evening was the lift ride down. Lift Operator actually used a lever to run the lift. The Palladian Lounge at the Bengal Chamber Of Commerce and Industry was the setting. Bang in the middle of Dalhousie, it still bears significant traits left over from Bengal's days of glory.
