Every thing was at its best, Music was nice and clear, auditorium is one of the best we have in Montreal, presentation was
superb, samosas were well made and excellent for the money, may be bit cheap for the money, job well done.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lovely Concert; thank you.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

5/5 for everyting except the snacks. Snacks should be hot.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks for everything!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

All in all I give full marks, 5/5 on all counts. I had a VERY enjoyable evening. Keep up the great work.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

The music was very nice and the performers were absolutly fabulous! The auditorium was also very good,
with good sound quality. The only negative point would be the logistic around the food selling.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was too noisy and too many musician at the same time. For the sale: All three items could have been sold
in a distance to give people a space to move.  Auditorium itself is very comfortable. Otherwise Kabir centre is
doing a good job, good shows and bringing people together.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Unfortunately we could not attend the concert…but ……. I met a good number of Indian friends who had
attended the concert the evening before.
The comments were unanimous: it was VERY good, they fully enjoyed the evening. 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

The above gradation (5 out of 5) says it all. One of the best concerts organized by KCC. Congratulations.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

A great deal of effort by the Kabir team, but it is worth it for the community uplifting and bringing it together...

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wonderful concert. My only 2 criticisms are the late start and the overcrowded area during the intermission

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

 I could not attend this hence cannot comment. I am SURE it was wonderful. All your programmes are. Blessings

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Probably one of the best concerts and enjoyment I had in the last little while.  Keep up the good work.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

While technically sound, I could not engage with the music.  Getting to the point was slow and when we arrived,
it was too fast, too noisy, too controlled……….The samosas were cold and it was a circus to get to the food and away from it.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

I was greatly impressed by this concert, the pricing was great, I appreciated music and DVD offering at the concert as well.
I had a terrific experience! Thank you for your hard work Kabir Cultural Center!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

But overall, I would say that I was a little let down, given the expectation aroused….I felt there was too much talk from the
 organizers and too much time taken with speeches.  Logistics OK. Value for money, more or less. 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was an excellent concert and everything worked well. Perhaps it
would be good to give approx. end time. The length surprised my
in-laws though they loved the music.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thank you for setting it up. I was especially impressed with the ease at which I picked up the tickets...I was expecting a
mess! I really had an amazing time.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well organized. Good concert Hall.
I enjoyed particularly the last item of the programme: ragamalika by the three.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

A memorable evening – terrific music!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kabir Cultural Centre is doing all Indians proud. I hope you can get more Ustads/Pandits during this year of India in Canada.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nous avons été enchantés par ce spectacle. Il est certain que le confort de la salle n'est pas optimal, mais ce n'est pas majeur comme problème.
 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

(Quality of the music) Extremely disappointed. . I was not prepared to start a classical musical performance
with light dhuns at the beginning - and not that good at it. …. rendition of "Shree" was half-hearted and left so
much to be desired. Having said that, Kabir Centre is providing dedicated service …. 
So keep up the excellent and commendable service and programs!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

What a wonderful concert last night……It was great to see that audiences kept on the standing ovation while artists l
eft the stage…..He was excellent in his art and profound in words from the stage -- short and meaningful. And the
respect with which he introduced other artists -- what a joy to see that from a world renowned artist! 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

My view is that I am sorry I missed it. Everyone of my friends was raving about it.

Aspect of the Concert Average note out of '5' max.
Quality of music 4.57
Seating and acoustics 4.60
Presentation by Kabir Cultural Centre 4.77
Snack sale, CD sale etc 3.83
Value for money 4.50
