... and, famously ... wonderfully ... the all-night ragas in 1981 and 1983. None of this would "address" the "issues" that some find "contentious" with Chineke!, though - as they perform only repertoire from the Western Classical Traditions. (I wonder if there were ever grumbles about "We never get all-night Grieg, do we?" at the time.)
Ever since those 1980s events, I've always hoped for non-Western "classical" Music to be featured at the Proms (they must have "done" gamelan some time, mustn't they .... ?!) - there must be so many riches I've never encountered.
