I was there playing Tabla at the beginning, then left in the afternoon. I don't know many names of the people playing, but I know the first person playing was Nina Rao.

I have audio recordings of some of the performances, but I want to confirm permission from the performers before posting them anywhere. Nina's 11 Chalisas I've been listening to a lot. I have some of Keshav's also and a few others. I wish I knew more of their names.

It was only the end of November that I even heard of the Hanuman Chalisa, and this was after playing tabla at Kirtans for years. There is something really compelling about it. The 108 Hanuman Chalisas at Dharma's was a really great event. I stayed up all night to be there (I was a New Years Eve at Alex Grey's COSM) but I'm so glad I did. It was a great way to start the new year.
