• A highly unusual cross-cultural enterprise -- the result of an encounter between the Norwegian folk music artist Svein Westad, and music teachers at the Nepal Music Centre in Kathmandu.

• The Norwegian Munnharpe(Jews harp) and Seljefløyte (willow pipe flute) are both natural scale instruments, thus seemingly different in character from the Nepali Bansuri and the Sarangi. Nevertheless, the instruments harmonized perfectly when brought together, thanks to the players’ skill

• Nepalese and Norwegian tunes are mixed to form new musical expressions which nevertheless are recognisably part of both traditions
