একটা এত পরিচিত গান, যা সাধারণত বাচ্চাদের জন্যই ব্যবহৃত হয় তাকে এত নিঁখুত সুন্দর করে তুলে ধরতে বোধহয় আপনার মতো রবীন্দ্রনাথ যাপনে অভ্যস্থ মনই পারে। অসাধারণ লাগলো।
She is excellent. For some reason I sense a little of Dr. Chitralekha Chowdhury. Is it because she is trained in Shantinekaton and possibly Chitraleka was her teacher? Thanks if you know the answers. Dr. Ajit Thakur (USA)
Hello Dr. Thakur, Many thanks for your comments. We are all gratified. Nandini Mukherjee is my mother. I replied on her behalf to your earlier comment on Shanti koro Borishono. My mother learnt Rabindrasangeet very briefly (1976-78) from Amar Lahiri. Thereafter she is completely self taught. She has developed her own style and interpretation of notations over many years of thought and practice. She has no connection with Shantiniketan.
Thanks for satisfying my curiosity. I am sure you and your mother have heard Chitralekha's records. She is still active. Her daughter also sings. You would know her mother was Chitraneva, one of Gurudev's favorite artists (painting and sculpture). Her father was our mathematics teacher in classes 9 and 10 (1955-'56) at the Town School in Kolkata (then Calcutta!). The entire family is beautiful. Your mother is a very special singer. The Rabindrasangeets I heard on RU-vid by her all come to life with her. Please give her my thanks and regards. . @@simantinimukherjee4695
My mother would like to thank you for your exceptionally kind remarks. She says she is very much aware of the legacy of Dr. Chitralekha Chowdhury and her family. In fact, she has had the good fortune of meeting Dr. Chowdhury on more than one occasion and even singing before her. Thank you once again for sharing your thoughts. We hope you will like more of the songs in the coming days, and perhaps share more of your thoughts and insights as well. With best wishes. @@ajitandyokothakur7191
