From the album Ulta Desor Palta Kotha - Dino Doyal – a root song of North-Eastern part of India especially in NorthBengal  and Assam..............very original.

Kalpana Patowary, who hails from Barpeta in Assam, learnt Goalporia folk songs since her childhood and gradually started presenting it on various public platforms, giving a new dimension to the folk music. 

Till date, she has 5 studio musical documented albums released. Her other cultural ventures include The Legacy of Bhikhari Thakur,The Sacred Scriptures of Monikut, Anthology of Birha and several cultural projects taken up for promotion of folk culture of the India.

…..no matter whatever we do to bring modernity to the music, its soul should be kept intact. “Many new generation artistes are experimenting with folk music. I want to appeal that while doing this, they should be cautious about not drifting away from the roots. In any circumstance, the folk music should exude the smell of that land, where it was generated,” she added.

“In Assam, there is a folk song for every stage of life. 
 “There are songs to be sung when a child is born, when one is getting married, etc. All these folk songs are spontaneous, inspired by the music in nature.”

The folk music of the land is varied. “Goalparia songs are about people’s lives. The mahout friend was made famous by Pratima Barua Pandey in her immortal songs Hastir Kanya and Mur Mahout Bondhure,”. A mahout is one who rides an elephant usually assigned to him early in life. These songs are a part of the Rajbongshi community of lower Assam and were slowly disappearing from public memory as the history of the land changed with geo-political alterations and communities in the periphery set about acquiring new identities. Pratima Barua Pandey revived these songs and saved them from disappearing into the oblivion.

Music is intrinsic to the land and to the essence of the Assamese spirit. Those who have lived in Assam know that the huge reservoir of folk songs carry a whole world of wisdom and heritage in them.
