Bappa

Bappa Majumdar needs no introduction to music aficionados in Bangladesh. Son of noted musician Barin Majumdar, Bappa has attained popularity as a singer as well as a music composer. About his background, Bappa says, "I took a five-year course in classical music at Monihar Sangeet Academy (a music school established by Barin Majumdar). However, I don't feel my training in classical music is adequate and that's why I haven't pursued that genre of music." Bappa's band, 'Dalchhut' was formed in '96. Incidentally Dalchhut was among the first few in the country which began popularising the genre, 'folk-fusion'. Read more on Last.fm.
