#KothaKoiyoNa #cokestudiobanglas2 #RealMagic
#KothaKoiyoNa is the sound of two hearts having a conversation - one is written by the modern urban poet Hashim Mahmud, while the other is an excerpt from the ancient folk ballad - Maimansingha Gitika - known as the Eastern Bengal Ballads in English, it is a collection of folk ballads from Mymensingh in Bangladesh. Shiblu and Aleya Begum take turns in singing, like exchanging dialogues where the modern urban folk lyrics finds answers from the traditional voices rooted in earthen Bangla folk ballad of Maimansingha Gitika.
The duality of the song is not limited to the lyrics alone, but goes on to the composition of the music too. The eclectic music producer Emon Chowdhury has left no stone unturned when it came to using Bangladeshi wind and stringed instruments for this song. Starting with the leaf-flute in the beginning to the grand orchestration of the Sarinda and Mymensingh Geetika chorus in the end, he has juxtaposed the Bangladeshi traditional sound of east with the modern instruments of the west. Creating a #RealMagic musical where everything is in a conversation with one other.
