Rabindra Sangeet

Rabindranath Tagore’s music—Rabindra Sangeet—is universal. It touches what is common to human experience. Tagore’s songs speak of love, longing, devotion, separation, freedom, nature, and death, emotions that precede language and geography. The mood of a song carries meaning. His music resonate across spiritual traditions without being confined to one theology. His fusion music is not for novelty but for harmony through understanding. Tagore's nature is a living participant.

Its humility makes it timeless.

Tagore’s music does not instruct; it converses. It does not conquer; it accommodates. Tagore’s music belongs everywhere. It first belongs to the human within.

Tagore's music suggested that music is not born in rules.

Music is an extension of life’s rhythm. The listener’s inner state is as important as the sound. Enjoying music without knowing it is not ignorance.

Rabindranath Tagore's music floats between discipline and freedom. To enjoy his music, one need not know where the music came from. One only needs to remain afloat to enjoy it.

In Rabindranat's music, it's close association with the nature can be distinctly felt. The pure music produces its own appeal. The intermingling of Nature and Music in the light of Tagorean philosophy expresses the utmost Romanticism.

His thoughts on music is expressed in his book Sangit Chinta. In this book, Tagore emphasised on the emotional values of the Indian Classical music.
