Kutumba Band performed live on KU

Image

A well renowned nepali music band called Kutumba performed live on KU [Kathmandu University] Dhulikhel, Kavre last Friday [16th November '07] on the occasion of Youth Solidarity Festival ‘07 organized by SWC [Student Welfare Council] of KU.
They have performed a half dozen of music [both their’s original and others creation]. ‘They are the original nepali band’, one commented on their performance.Basically they use flute,skin drums,tungna,sarangi.Any music lover loves their music.
Automatically we feel better when we listen/see their performance.After their wonderful performance, I interviewed with them.And I come to know the fact that, their band was stablished in 2004 .
Kutumba is a folk instrumental ensemble committed to the celebration, research and preservation of the diversity that exists in indigenous Nepali music. Kutumba firmly believes that the richness in Nepali music is directly significant of the rich diversity that exists in the Nepali people.



There are total 7 members in Kutumba.They are Raju,Rubin,Siddartha,Binaya,Pavit,Rasil and Arun.And basically Raju and Pavit plays ‘Skin Drums’,Rubin and Binaya plays ‘Flute’ similarly, Siddartha plays ‘Effect’,Rasil plays ‘Sarangi’ and Arun plays ‘Tungna’.
In their band till the date they have 48 nepali traditional instruments.
And till the date they have released three albums called ‘Kutumba’, ’Folk Roots’ & ‘Naulo Bihani’ and next one is coming soon.They have created about 20 music [their’s own creation], which gives pleasure to our mind.
Kutumba’s music is beautiful and its beauty is rooted in the blend of its diverse forms of instruments. By combining indigenous instruments and musical styles of a wide range of ethnic groups, Kutumba has all along found harmony, and succeeded in popularizing indigenous Nepali music among Nepali youth and folk connoisseurs worldwide. Now Kutumba feels the need to take their music to the places and people it came from, to the villages, and share with them and learn and inspire to grow to newer heights.

    I heard KUTUMBA in NTV 2 and while listening them i found that my eyes were in wet condition without my known. There music (without any voice) was so heart touchy ...I don't know did you guy get the same experience or not but one thing is that it would be more intresting and amazing to listen them in evening environment with a little bit chill climate...I think in band like performance that new experience can not be felt.

Radha : Shruti Sambeg [Review and Download]

Radha by Krishna Dharabasi is wonderful novel based on traditional era of Lord Krishna and Radha. The traditional plot of the story makes the readers/listeners feel that Dharabasi is narrating us the same old story of love of Radha and Krishna. However , the story based on the traditional plot it portrays the modern era in a dramatic way such that it speaks of so many hidden things that we will be amazed while ending it up. Radha and Krishna are the eternal lovers. Lord Krishna and Radha are together since childhood. But in teenage they are separated (as in the traditional story) and Lord Krishna has to go away leaving Vindraban for fulfilling the task for which he has taken birth.This brings tragedy to Radha and all the people in Vindraban. Radha waits for Krishna to arrive but he seldom does. She is stubborn to go meet Krishna. Later she sets out as a Yogini in a long voyage to search self, leaving her parents. She is accompanied by her friend Bisakha everywhere she went. Radha faces...

Shirish Ko Phool : Review & Download

One of the finest book ever written in Nepali literature....Shirish Ko Phool and one of my personal favorite. I have read this novel over four times or say five times..and each time I finish the novel I feel pang and it hangs on my head for so many days. Why guilt is so painful that made such a strong woman called Sakambari to suicide..or die…?? The novel has a wonderful language..the simplest of all. When I had read it for the first time..to tell the truth that I hadn’t really understood the novel, I felt the love story in it and I could not understand the passion in the novel.. But this day I may say I am able to figure out the passion and the feelings of the author.. I really appreciate the wonderful story, the plot the real setting, the real characters…and the situation of the novel till it ends. The pain of running away from the feelings and passion. When the Suyogbir says.."Ma glass ma bhagchu” ( I forgot the line exactly…). The feeling is that we run away from pai...
