HINDUSTHANI MUSIC SCHOOL

Nazrul Sangeet (Bengali: Nojrul Geeti), literally "music of Nazrul", refers to the songs written and composed by Kazi Nazrul Islam, the national poet of Bangladesh and active revolutionary during the Indian Independence Movement. Nazrul Sangeet incorporate revolutionary notions as well as more spiritual, philosophical and romantic themes. Nazrul wrote and composed nearly 4,000 songs (including gramophone records), which are widely popular in Bangladesh and India. Nazrul used his music as a major way of disseminating his revolutionary notions, mainly by the use of strong words and powerful, but catchy, tunes. Nazrul Geeti has recently been translated and recorded in Oriya (an Indian language) in the form of a studio album.
