There was a time when recitation was confined to the solo regimentation of the artist. But Sumantra Sengupta thought otherwise.The rhythm of poetry brings more joy if shared with others. So 23rd July, 1989 was the birth of "Shankhamala" a school for recitation.
Shankhamala has all along experimented with the poetical art form. It has been manifest in their productions. Latent to every poem there is a drama. A good recitor can bring out this inherent drama. "Jalosrot Kotha Koy", " Nobojiboner Angikar" (Based on Tagore's Shisutirtha), "Jagaron Pala" , "Ondhokar Lekhaguccho" ," Meghnad BodhKabyo" are apt examples of something different.
