S took Anush for a lovely concert for kids at Windmills Craftworks.
Anushka wrote me a mail about it, as I was away:
Anushka wrote me a mail about it, as I was away:
" The show was in the 5th floor . I do not remember where it was .
It was quite some time till the show started . I met my school friend , A there .
The
narrator Aarti told us that we were going to listen to stories &
hear music . There were 4 musicians & she told all their childhood
stories .
Jayanti is the girl's name . Every one in her family is a
musician (violin) . And in her house was a strange instrument , the
Veena . Her aunt came from Singapore & played the veena . Jayanti
too wanted to play the veena. She woke at 4 , veena 3 hrs after school 3
more hrs veena & finally went to bed .
Another story . Kumresh , a
very good violin player . Secretly good cricket player also . Father did
not approve . A school musical & cricket . He could participate in
only one of the two . He chose cricket . Father furious. Got him
removed from team . He chose violin over cricket .
Satish plays mridangam & his brother plays too . He feels sad . But one concert his
brother lets him play Awesome concert .World famous mridangam player.
Pramat loves music . For b'day he got a small instrument . He learnt to
play it . Best thing is he could carry it in his pocket . Band came to
find a new member . He was chosen for the band . Very happy .

I dont know who I am more impressed with- the sutradaar or Anushka's review.

So concise. Reminds me of how you write, points which lets you know what needs to be said. WTG, Anush.
