Barin Mazumder

Barin Mazumder (15 February 1921 – 3 October 2001) was a Bangladeshi classical musician and educationist.

Mazumder was born into a kayastha Jamindar family at Radhanagar in Pabna District.

Instead, he brought Ustad Roghurangan Gushwami from Lucknow to teach him music at home.

At the college, he met with his friend and fellow musician Chinmoy Lahiri.

He mortgaged his favorite tanpura and returned to Pabna during that very turbulent period.

Majumder came to Dhaka in 1957 and joined as a professor of Classical Music in Bulbul Lalitakala Academy.

After the partition of India when most of his neighbors had to cross the border, he stayed for the love of his homeland, but the riches and wealth which were made over the generations were mostly looted and hunted by the miscreants.

Fighting with severe frustration and depression, Mazumder had to pass his time only with his favorite hunting.
