Sanjita Rathi performed Rabindra Sangeet at the event. Gautam Kumar Sarkar was on tabla, Kaushik Ahmed Antar on keyboard, and Md. Nasir Uddin on guitar. The program was conducted by poet Jyotish Scalability.
Various aspects of the cultural connection between Rabindranath and France were discussed at the event. Special attention was given to Rabindranath's acquaintance with French literary and artistic luminaries and the role of such cultural exchanges in their broader historical and creative journeys.
François Chanto, Director of Alliance Française de Dhaka, recited poems translated from French. He said, "Rabindranath's relationship with France spanned several decades. Paris was one of the major capitals of art, and there he met many artists who played an important role in his development as a Brahma Sangeet artist. The goal of this event is to highlight the richness of this cultural dialogue."
The evening, combining Rabindranath's timeless songs with discussions on music, gave the audience a fresh opportunity to revisit his international cultural connections. The evening celebrated the confluence of Bengali and French cultural heritage.
