After the speeches the eagerly awaited musical evening started. Baby took the stage and spoke briefly about her childhood. her father who encour-
aged her most to pursue a singing career.
She then started off with the title song of her new album Ekakl Kara Na Amay, Ferano Jabe Na with the cheering applause from the audience. Her melHfluoos voice and brilliant music together did cast magical on the evening. The acoustic guitar and light drums at the background provided great accompaniment to her song. Her second song-- written by a young songwriter Mas Masum and put to music by Ibrar Hossain Tipu--- Kichu Kotha, Kichu Gaan, Kichu Kobita Shob Tamar Jonnya was a melodious piece nicely synchronised with flute gave the audience something to savour. The use of piano and flute at the same time in the song was laudable.
She is also a poet and has two books of poetry Se and Bhalobasha to her name. She is the songwriter of the third song of the evening. And this song was written, she said, while she was enjoying the beauty and magnificence of midnight.
The next one was a romantic number Chokhe Chokhe Kotha Bolo. Mone Mone Kheta Karo. Ke Tumi Jadu Korecho? Sohel Arman and Dipon wrote the song while renowned keyboardist of the band Miles Manam Ahmed composed it.
The last song of the evening Rangeela. written and put to music by herself was quite entertaining.
All in all it was a memorable evening.
