The album released on 2011 under the Saregama label in CD format. The track spans 3 minutes and 6 seconds and showcases Ghosh’s mastery of the bansuri (North Indian bamboo flute).

The album compiles recordings by Ghosh, a pioneering figure in elevating the bansuri as a solo concert instrument in Hindustani classical music.

Saregama, the album’s publisher, is a prominent Indian record label specializing in classical, devotional, and film music. The release date of 2011 positions the album within a broader revival of archival recordings from 20th-century Indian classical artists.
