Pandit Debashish Bhattacharya is one of the world's most remarkable slide guitarists and this album (with bonus DVD) represents the culmination of a lifetime of intensive study, performance and innovation. All the guitars heard on Calcutta Slide Guitar are unique instruments designed by Debashish himself, a trinity of guitars- Chaturangui, Gandharvi and Anandi, representing three generations of instruments, while also continuing a thousand year tradition of music. Calcutta Slide Guitar dazzles the listener with hypnotic patterns and stunning music shaped from Debashish's original three-finger picking technique.
