Tablaraj Bangladesh at Sherpur & Jamalpur


Tablaraj Bangladesh made it’s stepping starting from Sherpur and then Jamalpur on 26th and 27th of September, 2009 respectively. Introducing own self, Tablaraj Bangladesh got appreciation from the people of Sherpur and Jamalpur as they are uttering the same voice about the Bangladeshi culture. As Tablaraj Bangladesh is marching forward with a view to bring the noble people (I must name them as noble people) who are holding in mind and carrying the origin through entreating those, in the lime light and respect their plays and works.

In Sherpur, Tablaraj Bangladesh was given a warm welcome with few respected personalities; Akhtarujjaman (advocate), Tapon Sarwar (lecturer), Md. Momenul Haque (businessman), Sahiddujjaman (assistant library controller), Abdul Kadir (lecturer of Bangla), Rasel (teacher), Binoy dey (cultural executive), Tara Miah (Baul Singer), Md. Nur Islam (Baul) and few students, along with Tablaraj Bangladesh team. Tablaraj Bangladesh was boosted with their very versatile and important views about recent condition of literature, music, theatre, overall cultural attributes. There are many discussions and finding that we do not do, example we are not exploring Jasim Uddin (the great poet) who has contributed for the country through his plays, also the great artist like Abdul Alim (great singer). Even we are loosing out many songs, example, Murshidi songs, Kirton, Kobigaan, Mohorrom songs etc; these are just bounded in the pages of history books. We have almost lost those with social constraints (religious difference problem) – Murshidi is muslim song, Kirton is Hindu song. All these social constraints allowed eradicating the various attribute of our culture.

Tablaraj Bangladesh has come out with a valuable finding, Tara Miah, the baul is renowned at Sherpur. He sings for his passion and for soil and the people. He was student of Islamic academic medium, yet his artistic soul had taken him away from all the obstacles and finally he came out as a Baul singer. He was accused badly in his society but his singing and its lyrics made all people cry and feel the connection of honesty for the eternity and then he was respected all at Sherpur and today we got him under the Tablaraj Bangladesh banner and Tablaraj Bangladesh is proud to get as close companion of its association. Tara Miah says, Music is not a business product, and it is not music when it is obscene. True or well-refined music is that music which enables to convert the inhuman into a real man.

In Jamalpur, there were present much respected personalities to welcome and assist the Tablaraj Bangladesh with their valuable information and suggestions. Jamalpur is already culturally enriched with talented people and with its core mind set of Bangali. The important personalities boosted Tablaraj Bangladesh with their valuable and informative speech. The personalities are – Md. Sajjad Hossain, Md. Hedayetul Islam (lecturer), Md. Liakot Ali (NDC), D.S.M. Jahid Hossain, Sajjad ansary, Mahbubur Ansary, Md. Anwar, Md. Abdus Sobhan, Fazlul Karim (teacher), Ali Imam Dulal, Sayeeda Mustafa Begum, Dipon Mirza, Kabi Md. Mizanur Rahman, Dipok Kumar Saha.

Sayeeda Mustafa Begum had said about few very old instruments, Kashi, Khanjori, Dhak, Mrigol Bashi (one type of flute) etc. which can not be seen nowadays at all and it is lost long ago. Even she talked about Surab Boyati (singer), Katandar Behala (Violin player); she says that we won’t get them even through searching with candles. She Suggest that Tablaraj Bangladesh must bring out all these things. Ali Imam Dulal said that he this association’s step is obviously big and great and he will always stand behind with his support. Mr. Sobhan says a very important fact that is an artist never becomes old but is evergreen and hence we must reserve his respect with his biography and practicing his works. Mr. Anwar says that, an artist hold a particular rhythm in his or her heart and blood that enables him or her to explore one’s talent with or without the academic lesson. Academy is needed for polishing but originally it needs a fresh heart to contain art in the mind that links one into music or painting or writing. Mr Awar has written and sang about three hundreds of songs. Even he sang a song with kirton’s tune while lyrics are similar to Murshidi criterion. Music has no bound but binds with every harmony. Art is a hunger and we just swallow but don’t meet our hunger, says Jahid Hassan as per today’s status. He also says that exploring qualities of art means getting back the pulse. Sajjad Ansary stated few important issues that Tablaraj Bangladesh would have to face in its march, those are, religious extremism, making business, conceptual mistake about different types of songs (example, many people name Jari and Sari song as Baul song and that is wrong). We must consider the nation at first that is a land and a nation is culture. Our Bangladesh became country after 71 but it was nation even before 71 and thus, our culture also existed long ago when it was named Bangladesh but our first introduction is Bangali. We must know the land, its source, its values, thus the country that composes the entire culture.

Rajan Saha, the president of the association Tablaraj Bangladesh introduced the association and its objectives and the queries for stepping ahead and also thanked the people of Sherpur and Jamalpur them for their appreciation, support and important suggestions. Along with the president Rajan Saha, other members were present there are- Hasibur Rouf Suvro, Momenul Hauque, Arzoo Pervez, Mahbub Rubel and Tahera Hossain. Tablaraj Bangladesh is grateful to the people of Sherpur and Jamalpur.
