"Mr. Majumdar's playing sometimes suggested the way Beethoven reconstructed a theme out of its variations in his late works."
-- The New York Times
"Tejendra Narayan Majumdar has scored a sublime fusion of 'God Bless America' and 'Vande Mataram' where East and West meet in orchestrated harmony, telling the story of aspirations and memories."
--The Telegraph
One of the best-known Sarod players of the present generation, Pandit Tejendra Narayan Majumdar, has long achieved that order of excellence and popular acceptability, which ensure one's place in posterity.
Pandit Tejendra Narayan Majumdar's brilliance and popularity as a classical artiste has not dimmed his interest in composing, arranging and experimenting in other areas of music. From composing the background score of Meaningful Films to Musical Ballets - Tejendra is always ready to take on any musical challenge.
