ZUBIN KEPT THE AUDIENCE SPELLBOUND
Zubin Mehta not only won the hearts of the Kashmirs audience but mesmerised them with his weaved magic with his orchestra. A strong 2000 well behaved audience watched in rapt attention and spell bound concentration. Sopori's troop of 17 Indian musicians comprised of 15 Kashmiri artists and two from Delhi gave music of the century. I still remember an action in Srinagar when West Indies team toured India in 1983 and played a match against the Indian outfit. At that time the spectators were cheering when Indian wickets fell but now Zubin won the hearts and made it a paradise on earth. Renowned conductor Zubin Mehta performed before a jam packed audience in the Shalimar Gardens on the banks of Dal Lake and symponotised his magic amid tight security. Holding his baton, the Mumbai born opera music conductor gave a performance of his life and made the dream come true. It was indeed a treat to hear well timed music as music has no language.
