The album is based on Tagore’s mystic love for monsoon and its splendours which have been rhythmically expressed through Chandreyee’s mellifluous voice and soft tonal quality of Santoor by one India’s greatest living instrumentalists Tarun Bhattacharya, depicting Tagore’s tribute to Mother Nature.
Emotions and different chords of nature have been wonderfully expressed through the Maestro Taruns’ 100 stringed Santoor and Chandreyee’s vocal rendition.
The imagery that these poems sketch brings out the fervour of the season. Tunes blend well with the images and emotions. Ragas like Miyan Ki Malhar, Megh Malhar and Desh have been mellifluously harmonised with the wordings. In some songs, Baul and Bhatiali impart the deep philosophical essence of life that the season sometimes evokes. Traditional folk tunes add colour to the monsoonal songs.
