Poet Santosh Kumar Brahma wrote about a young spouce beeing prepared for her wedding by her mother, about all the beauty of life with all its colourful sorroundings. She will dream about her future husband and is ancious about entering the next part of life.

Composer/Pianist Gernot Reetz receives the Bengali language as melody and rythm, just as music and connects this beautiful poetry with the world of indian and european music including improvisation.
