"Xavier's to Tagore: Muktapushpa"


It is a matter of pride that St. Xavier's Collegiate School is the first school in India to release a CD titled, "Xavier's to Tagore: Muktapushpa", devoted to Kavi Guru Rabindranath Tagore in collaboration with HMV Sa Re Ga Ma.
Prof. Krishna Bose as Chief Guest graced this auspicious occasion. Other eminent dignitaries who were present are Rev. Fr. George Ponodath, S.J. (Rector), Rev. Fr. K.K. Devasy (Principal), Rev. Fr. Sebastian James (Vice Principal), Mr. Noomi Mehta (Honorary Secretary, Alumnorum Societas) and Mr. Karim (Chief Content Manager, Sa Re Ga Ma).
This programme is an offering to Kavi Guru Rabindranath Tagore from the students St. Xavier's Collegiate School, Kolkata. Tagore himself studied in this school and fondly recorded his memories in 'Jibon Smriti', which was published exactly 100 years back, in 1912. In this era of modernization and westernization, Kavi Guru Rabindranath Tagore evokes us to be proud of one's culture and nation.
