Unlocking the treasure troves in the NCPA Archives for the first time ever.

Presenting never before released audio recordings of the legendary Sitar maestro. Recording of Pt Nikhil Banerjees session at the NCPA studios in December 1975.

Described as the 'treasure trove' of Indian classical music, the NCPA Archives has over 5000 hours of music of the 'who's who' of classical music - both in the Hindustani and Carnatic styles. Maintained for over 4 decades in the most ideal conditions of temperature and humidity, and on the best recording formats, the NCPA Archives preserves and protects India's rich musical hertiage. Accroding to the Artists themselves, the work recorded on the Archieves features some of their best works, recorded at the prime of their careers. This wonderful 'khazana' is being presented to the music loving public for the first time.
