Tidal Listening | hany tea & Promona Sengupta

With hany tea and Promona Sengupta

Tidal Listening is a radio series that brings together artists, researchers, and sound practitioners to reflect on how music, sound, and listening practices grow out of people’s relationships to rivers, deltas, and coastal environments around the world.

This episode features a conversation with Dr. Promona Sengupta, who introduces Bhatiyali and other folk and syncretic musical traditions from South Asia, exploring how these songs are shaped by the rivers, tides, and changing ecologies of the Bengal Delta.
