Medley of dangdut songs as a successful closing of this second session filled with audience's laughter because of the witty arrangements and performances of the players who participated swaying and swinging the bow of each instrument in accordance with the rhythm of dangdut. The audience burssted into laughter increasingly watching the conductor did the dangdut dance with gold fabric attributes while conducting the orchestra.
"The concert was very good and really entertaining, especially the lid. The element of surprise really made this concert to a climax and success," said Putu Fedri Krisnakusuma, one of the spectators.
