Young connoisseurs of Indian Classical Music held a symphony of Santoor (a trapezoid-shaped hammered dulcimer instrument which has 25 bridges and each bridge has 4 strings, making for a total of 100 strings and is played with the help of two wooden mallets known as mezrabs). The Santoor was accompanied by the Indian set of drums -Tabla.
