Shimul Zaman
Edit ProfileCareer
She learned eastern Classical and then branched into Nazrul Sangeet and later into Rabindra Sangeet. After moving to the North America, she got involved in the efforts for the continuation of our cultural heritage by running a Bengali School (Ekusher Patshala) in Raleigh, North Carolina. She took lessons from eminent Rabindra Sangeet singer Banani Ghosh while in Cleveland, Ohio. After moving to North Carolina she took lessons on Hindustani Classical.
Despite her initial love for Nazrul sangeet and Ranbindra Sangeet, currently she is more tuned to Modern Bengali Song.
She is now singing and writing her own songs. She is one of the artists of the complete Rabindra Sangeet album "Shrutigitobitan" (in Bengali: "শ্রুতি গীতবিতান") published from Dhaka, Bangladesh.
