This concert also focuses on how people, as inventors, sustainers, and communicators of traditional music, develop strategies to accommodate the change. Dwiki Dharmawan is very proud of his nationalism and strongly believe in internasionalism, He want his generation to have spirit to always seek new ideas and innovation based on the richness of their own traditions, diversity and pluralism as given.
