Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Deben Bhattacharya (1921 2001) was a Bengali radio producer, record producer, ethnomusicologist, anthropologist, documentary filmmaker, photographer, translator, poet, writer, broadcaster, lecturer, and folk music consultant. He produced over 100 records, 23 films and published more than a dozen books in his lifetime and much of his work was carried out under the auspices of UNESCO. Bhattacharya was born to an old Bengali Brahmin family that was settled in Benares for over 130 years. As a young man, he was influenced by the work of English poet Lewis Thompson, which prompted him to move to England, where he worked for the BBC as a radio producer. Knowing a lot of Indians in London, he started to record Indian musicians on a Baird tape recorder. When Bhattacharya had the idea to do field recordings in India, he was met with a financial dilemma of needingPds. 80 for the tape recorder, Pds. 20 for the transformer, Pds. 25 for 20 blank tapes, plus about Pds. 60 for a one way boat ticket to Bombay. Sunday Wilson a producer for the overseas service, commissioned him for six five-minute programmes, which garnered Pds. 30.6.0.
