Mathias Hansda reminisced about his days in the Kairabani Mission school, as a student and teacher, about the school band, his teacher Benjamin Murmu, listened to the recordings, sang a little bit and talked about how things change over time, through rahan-sahan; that is, in the course of one’s life.
