Namaste,
Nepal is full of wonders gifted by so many wonderful things. To add to that, Nepal also has so many talented musicians, who tirelessly create and recreate music from traditional instruments of Nepal. Such musicians are rare to find these days anywhere in the world. 
Kutumba, a Nepali folk instrumental band comes into such category. Their music has won millions of Nepali's and Diaspora's heart. I have been fan of Kutumba (2004) since their first album called Kutumba which almost means relationship but can go further than that. These six member band plays, Sarangi (Traditional Nepali violin like), Madal (Nepali drum), Bamboo flute, Tungna (Mountain Tibetan Guitar), Tabla (Nepali Classical drum), Jhyamta (symbols) and more with different tracks as it unfolds. Its a complete music. When I was in Nepal, I was so close to seeing them in concert but again, there are things in life we cannot do, get or see when we want.
We must accept it and move on. That is what I did however, I came with their third album called Naulo Bihani, which means new kind of morning. 
Before Naulo Bihani, they came up with another album called Folk Roots (2005), The album consist of total 10 tracks. All of them are just fantastic to jam with or just to listen to Nepali tune. I have featured Kutumba's music in my video as well that I created for my presentation and you may listen to them via my video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8D8DArpAIY0 just copy the link and paste on your browser.
And now they came with their third album and they are just getting better and better. Just to let you know all these CDs are available @ my shop. lamaprem@gmail.com
