Translation:

                                    Kanai Dutta

At Chowringhee, near the Lords Bakery, there was an open space, where the Sadarang Conference would be held. There would always be a huge crowd at the conference. Tickets were priced at Rs. 4 or Rs. 5. There had come to perform in the morning session, a Baiji, who was not very acclaimed at that time; referred by Kanai Da. The Baiji had said, “I do not prefer to be accompanied by a Bangali Babu…” And Kanai Da had assured, saying, “Oh, don’t you worry… I will play with you.”

Dabir Khan Saheb said, “Hey what are you doing? This is such a trouble!”

But the Baiji continued, saying “No no… I won’t allow a Bangali Babu…” (voice not clear)

Thus, Khan Saheb had to play, though the Biaji was not an infamous one.

That day at the morning session…

Do you understand, Kanai Dutta was refused!

No no, just see the way of talking-  “I won’t allow a Bangali Babu…”

These Bangalees are the one who were famous Tabla Players.

Translation:

This is a very old story from a long time ago. I was then a student of Khan Sahib, and perform very little. I was still not out professionally in the market, but everyone important knows that I can play. Because I used to carry the bags of Keramat Khan sahib, followed him with my tabla set, sat beside him, tuned the table, and as a result, I was a known face.

At the Tansen Conference, when Vilayat Khan got ready to perform, Shailen Da told him, “Today, Kanthe Maharaj Ji and Thirakwa Sahib would play with you… a duet.” Vilayat Khan said, “They are both big names, elephants in their own right, why not give them a turn? Not together.”

Shailen Da replied: “No, we decided for a duet today.”

But they didn’t agree. They said, “We shall perform separately.” Kanthe Maharaj ji took the first turn. I was near the stage at the time. I went with Keramatulla Khan Sahib and was allowed at the first row, and I was watching the fun. Out of nowhere, Vilayat Khan took up a complicated tune. Maharaj was known for the uniqueness of his technique.

Hafiz Ali Khan Sahib was playing along. In this context, I must say that the beat he chose was Tintala but the Theka was surprisingly balanced, making it a astonishingly beautiful rhythm. Dha Den Na Ke, Ta De Na Ke, Tin Tin Na Ke, Dha Dhin Dhin Dha, Dha Dhin Dhin Dha… went on fading bol.
           Ustad Hafiz Ali Khan

 

So, he was demonstrating the rhythm with a movement of his feet, and Vilayat Khan found it extremely offensive. Suddenly, someone from the audience made a taunting noise. And at that time the rivalry of Vilayat Khan and Ravi Shankar was akin to that of the much publicized rivalry of East Bengal and Mohan bagan football teams. Suddenly, Vilayat Khan dropped the sitar with a bang and walked out. “No, I won’t play. They’re all agents of Ravi Shankar. I won’t play.”

Karamat Khan Sahib stood up. “What are you doing, my brother?”

Vilayat Khan: “No, Keramat bhaijan, they’re taunting at me.”

Karamat Khan Sahib: “No one is taunting at you.”

Vilayat Khan understood, and then came back on stage after a few smokes. His performance was first class. And then it was Thirakwa Sahib’s turn.

-Allow me to interrupt, I have a question. Around what year did this happen? Was it in the forties?

-No, abruptly 1954 or 55.

-Where was this musical conference held?

This was, as I feel… The program was explosive. But there was that one interruption. Music is music, after all. Vilayat Khan, with his electrifying music, would often throw out challenges to the crowd while he played. “Is there anyone who can play like me?” That’s what he used to do whenever he performed.

           Pt. Kanthe Maharaj

Anyway, then Thirakwa Sahib took his turn. What music it was! Kanthe Maharaj had already performed, but Thirakwa Sahib was another matter entirely. It was pure passion. What else would you call it? Keramat Sahib went inside again. “What are you doing, my brother? They taunted him so much, but no one said a word to you.”  He was always obsessed with taunts from the crowd, whether it was his own group that was responsible for the taunts.

Anyway, Khan Sahib coaxed and persuaded. It was Dabir Khan’s turn next. And after him, someone else took his arm and sat him down at the stage. Thirkua sahib performed. I was new to Kolkata then. I came to Kolkata at around fifty and that happened around in fifty five.

– That was around fifty five?

– Fifty four or fifty five I guess.

– So it took place either in Indira hall or Basusree Hall.

– Could be Indira or Bharati hall as well, I can’t remember clearly.
