A landmark in Bengali literature and culture- this book is a comprehensive archive of the music of stage performances in Bengal over the period 1795-1872. Debjit Bandopadhyay has diligently captured each detail and nuance of the songs, portraying the evolution of theater and society. From the very beginning, Bangarangamancha's theater philosophy follows the Western realistic theater style. So the use of music should be less. But the Bengali music-hungry mind could not accept that. The stage of Bengal could not avoid the influence of ancient folk rituals such as Yatra, Toppa, Panchali, Kirtan, Tarja etc. A new chapter in the life of a Bengali follower of the Chaitanya-yatra tradition was opened by the Russian musician Gerasim Stepanovich Liebedev. In the first production of the Bengali stage play, Liebedef accepted the demand of the audience and used the song of Raigunakar Bharatchandra Roy. The day was 27 November 1795 (14 Agrahayana 1202). Since the beginning of two hundred years, the song has been used in Bengali stage plays! Stage song. This book examines the application of every song in every drama staged in the first eight decades of the Adiparva period. This trial is not only about lyrics or melody - this trial is about drama-consciousness, society-psyche. This book is a unique root-search of contemporary Bengali culture, a unique forgotten mirror.
