About this recording

Title as given by the source
I explain my work to Rajib babu, tell him that I am interested to know about the trajectory from his grandfather at the turn of the twentieth century, through his own parents, down to him in his own time. Rajib babu says he will help me in whatever way he can, with photos and other details. He talks about their family of kirtaniyas, who hail from Vrindavan and the precious idol of Sri Krishna that one of their forefathers had found lying in a forest, and which Nabadwip Chandra’s father had brought with him when they migrated to Kolkata.
