Deben Bhattacharya - Musical Explorers - Waves Of Joy - Bauls Of Bengal

The film Waves of Joy was shot at the Kenduli Mela in West Bengal in 1973. It�s a huge musical and religious gathering. The songs on the accompanying CD were recorded in nearby Shantiniketan in 2001. Baul music and poetry are amongst the greatest expressions of Bengali culture and, as a native, Deben Bhattacharya was really able to appreciate and bring to us their profound truth and beauty. Waves of Joy co-curated by Jharna Bose-Bhattacharya. Total playing time, CD: 71:35 min. DVD: 27 min approx.
