Dear Pratanu, I am told that when BBC first recorded 'Amar Sonar Bangla' as band music 1972, a lady called Tripti Das , then living in London collected the staff notation from V Balsara. Based on that they (BBC music department) arranged the orchestra. Could you please update me if you are aware of any such happenings. I do not think Balsara had any of his notations in print form.
