great you uploaded these Namthars. These recordings were originally done by American film maker Lowell Thomas, Jr and his father in 1949. The singers are one of the best in our opera history. Jampa Sangtak, Migmar Gyeltsen, Kungo Mindu Po, and few more can't remember the name.The main teacher As an Lhamo artist and a recording artist, i have noticed that because of the recording done in those days, the sound are little bit faster then norma. Google Lowel and you will learn more. Techung
Hi transhimalaya, I apologize for not being more clear in my description. My dad was not part of Kalimpong's Kurmolongma or the Kalimpong Lhamo troupe, he was part of Dalhousie's lhamo, but he recorded several Kalimpong performances, since most of the performers were from Lhasa, like my father.
