Ananda Marga - Musical Production

Musical Production

On September 14, 1982 P. R. Sarkar composed Bandhu He Niye Calo at Deoghar, India. This was the first of a large collection of songs. Over the span of eight years the songs grew rich in content, style and variety. The compositions are known as Prabháta Saḿgiita ('Songs of the New Dawn'). On October 20, 1990, the day before P. R. Sarkar's departure, the number of songs stood at a 5,018. His last song composition, A'mra' Gar'e Nobo Gurukul, was on the establishment of the Gurukul (University) of which he had founded on September 7, 1990 in order to carry on his legacy through education and research.

Famous quotes containing the words musical and/or production:

    Syncopations are no indication of light or trashy music, and to shy bricks at “hateful ragtime” no longer passes for musical culture.
    Scott Joplin (1868–1917)

    It is part of the educator’s responsibility to see equally to two things: First, that the problem grows out of the conditions of the experience being had in the present, and that it is within the range of the capacity of students; and, secondly, that it is such that it arouses in the learner an active quest for information and for production of new ideas. The new facts and new ideas thus obtained become the ground for further experiences in which new problems are presented.
    John Dewey (1859–1952)
