"\"With The Music Room (Jalsaghar), Satyajit Ray brilliantly evokes the crumbling opulence of the world of a fallen aristocrat (the beloved actor Chhabi Biswas) desperately clinging to a fading way of life.

"A declining nobleman sits in his once-great house, now decaying and reminisces on his past life and his great parties as well as the loss of his son and wife. His inability to adapt to and cope with changing times has made him into a recluse. He gives one last party, tosses away all his money and dies in a fall from a horse." . . . "Biswambhar Roy, a zamindar (or feudal landlord), is the last in the line of landed aristocrats in British India. His ancestors lived lavishly but all Roy inherited is quickly disappearing in a pile of debts. But Roy's pride is unshakeable and he continues pawning his family jewels to pay for grand ceremonies involving musicians. Even when he loses his family in a tragic accident, and all his wealth, he still contemplates plans for another celebration. Again Subrata Mitra's cinematography is awe-inspiring, juxtaposing vast desolate landscapes against sumptuous intimate detail. As Ray said: \"The feudal lords were patrons of music. Our classical musicians owe a great deal to these aristocrats who had a deep understanding of their art. The nouveau riche invite the same musicians but without appreciating them. I made The Music Room in 1958 to preserve the last vestiges of an art I knew was disappearing.\"" . . . . . . "Satyajit Ray's" . "The music room" . . . . . . . . "The music room = Jalasagar" . . .
