About this recording

Title as given by the source
Slowly the sessions are moving towards listening to listening, layering recording upon recording. Now the tapestry has started to form. Seema Acharya is a renowned singer of kirtan and we went to her home in south Kolkata; we meaning sound recordist Sukanta Majumdar, I and Jan-Sijmen Zwarts, who has come from Utrecht to stay with me and help me read Arnold Bake’s letters. He took all the photos of the day. There were many with all the sweets and goodies we were treated to, which J-S’s lens especially saw, which I am not including here, although story goes that the older Dutchman whose footsteps he was following was also attracted to Bengali food.
