Vocal Classical
Ocean of Melody - Vol. II
by Pt. Prasun Banerjee
In the realm of Raga-based as well as melody-based Bengali songs, Prasun Banerjee was, and still remains, the undisputed King. No less was his proficiency in singing Bhajans and folk rooted Geets. And evidences of the same, too, are numerous. In an epoch-making career of playback singing spanning well over two decades, Prasun Banerjee won each singular heart with enormous passion for his immortally enlivening songs in the films Dhuli, Aasha, Jhinder Bondi, Jadubhatta, Surer Aagun, Rajodrohi, Basant Bahar, Sri Sri Ramkrishna, Biley Naren, not to lengthen the enviously successful list. He was a perfect trendsetter for all contemporary vocalists as well as those to come, in the matter of voice modulation, articulation and balance between emotion and technicality in recorded performances vis-a-vis live ones. The Goddess Saraswati bestowed upon Prasun Banerjee not only that beauty of a charming Prince, but also the sweet tonality of an ageless Gandharva.
The item includes some of his golden melodies from some of the evergreen features like Jhinder Bandi, Surer Agun, Dhuli, Basant Bahar, and such others ever covered in a music CD
