Rabindra Sangeet

A Presentation of DVD produced by Doordarshan

An NCPA Presentation

Rabindranath Tagore’s musical, cultural and philosophical influences span Indian and Western cultures. His towering persona explored a multitude of disciplines in his lifetime. Ethnic yet contemporary, the euphoric genre of music created by Tagore attempted to assimilate many influences from traditional Bangla folk and devotional genres to Hindustani ragas.

In an attempt to provide an audio-visual introduction to the huge corpus of music produced by Tagore, we present the first part of Rabindra Sangeet, a two-part DVD production by Doordarshan, culled from recordings, both old and recent, of eminent artistes from the archives of the public service broadcaster. The performing artistes include Hemanta Mukherjee, Kanika Bandyapadhyay, Debabrata Biswas, Suchitra Mitra, Chinmaya Chattopadhyay, Sagar Sen and Dwijen Mukhopadhyay.

Admission on a first-come-first-served basis. NCPA Members will get preferential seating till 6:20 pm.
