The Final Concert of Pandit Nikhil Banerjee

[Hoodooswamp]

I just recently discovered the amazing music of Pandat Banerjee. So amazing a talent was he. Thank you for posting these.

Nikhil Banerjee was simply a marvellous musician. His hypnotic, leisurely and majestic raga-unfoldment was and is a thing of joy and wonder.

I believe there's some mistake in your description, since panditji passed away on January 1986. Impossible that the concert was recorded on 1987, don't you think ;-)

The raga is, indeed, Hemant. Beautiful! Thanks for sharing!

yes, was lucky 2 hv been there. and NB, in his inimitable way, apologized for cutting it short due to ill health esp. coz it was DLMC. little did we know we'd never hear him again. all of us who recorded it have a special place for this one. btw, i notice this was uploaded day after what wudve been his 80th b'day.
