Shamima Jasmin
was a well known traditional singer and vocal teacher from Dhaka,
Bangladesh. She was also my mother-in-law.
In 2011, she recorded many self written songs and some traditionals. She
accompanied herself on the harmonium. Three of these songs ended up in a
collaboration with me, Tracks 13 and 14 are two of these tracks.
During February 2025, I found a long lost USB stick back that belonged
to my wife Laila. On the stick I found all the songs from Shamima Jasmin
from 2011 and started composing music around it. Two months later, the
album was finished.
About
Nirobota: actually the recorded vocal track had a very poor quality, but
I couldn’t resist making a track out of it, because it’s the only really
up tempo track. The track is added as a bonus track.
Dui Digonte, Nirjono and Pagol Mon are traditionals.
Shamima Jasmin: vocals,
harmonium, writer of all lyrics, except for the traditionals, vocal and
harmonium arrrangements. Recorded in 2011 in Uttara, Dhaka, Bangladesh.
Gert
Emmens: all other instruments, composer of the music. Composed and
recorded in February and March 2025 in Ede, Netherlands, 13 & 14 in 2011
in Arnhem, Netherlands.
Shamima
Jasmin passed away in 2018.
This album
is dedicated to Abdur Rahman and Shamima Jasmin, my beloved late
parents-in-law. |
