Rabindra Sangeet - Sagar Sen

Sagar Sen (1932–1983) was a Bengali singer. He is primarily known as a Rabindrasangeet artiste although he had recorded a few Bengali modern songs as well.
Sagar Sen made an entry into the world of Rabindrasangeet in the early 1960s.
Sagar Sen’s first recording with All India Radio was in the year 1958. Thereafter, he started performing as a Rabindrasangeet singer at Akashvani, Kolkata. He participated in the recordings of Tagore’s operas namely, Shap Mochan (1966) and Valmiki Pratibha (1967) under the direction of Santosh Sengupta. However, the big breakthrough came in 1968 with the recording of the song ‘Ami Jene Shune Bish Korechhi Paan’, a song from Tagore’s first opera ‘Mayar Khela’, which played a great role in establishing him as a very coveted artiste of Rabindrasangeet. Throughout the 1970s and early 1980s he recorded numerous songs with the erstwhile Gramophone Company of India Ltd.
