Best of V.Balsara & Kalyani Roy is a select compilation of Rare Hindusthani Classical. Hindusthani Classical instrumentalist and V. Balsara are two inseparable words. V. Balsara was one among such music directors who started his career in Hindi films but could not sustain it for long as a music director. But he changed the track of his career and became a famous instrumentalist, orchestra conductor, a music teacher and the music director of non-filmy songs and a few Bengali films during rest of his life. I became aware of his name in the 1970s mainly for his beautiful compositions of some non-filmy Hindi songs.
This is a select compilation and a treasure trove of Rare Hindusthani Classical. The major artists featured in this compilation are V.Balsara & Kalyani Roy. Kalyani Roy was probably one of the greatest exponents of Rabindra Sangeet instrumentalist. Vistas Ardeshir Balsara, known as V. Balsara in the music world was born in Bombay (Mumbai) to a Gujarati speaking Parsi Zoroastrian family. From his childhood, he was inclined towards Western music.
