Mangalore, February 27: The post-graduate department of English literature in the St Aloysius College and Durga Pooja and Dussera Celebration Committee Mangalore recreated the golden age of Tagore, giving a slice of Bengali culture in Mangalore in Shantiniketan style on Saturday.

The day-long tribute was named as 'Tagore's Day' which had the theme for the annual cultural festival of the college entitled “Engquest Twenty11”.

The main objective of the event was to pay tribute to Tagore on the occasion of his 150th birth centenary.

The event was also aimed to forward thoughts of Rabindranath Tagore through a cross cultural programme.

The day-long tributes included a special discourse on Tagore's literature, recitation of his poems, a quiz on his works and ballet on his life enacted by the students in typical Shantiniketan style, with costumes brought from Shantiniketan.

Three ballets namely 'Balmiki Prativa,' 'Chandalika' and 'Chitrangada' were performed. All the three ballets were the works of Tagore, but only selected instances from the ballet were performed.

A dance drama, was enacted by the students of St Aloysius College and the local Bengali community in 'Shantiniketan style'. The language used in the ballet was Bengali to keep the essence and flavour of the Bengali culture but translations in English helped audience understand the meaning of the performance.

The members of the Bengali Association sung some of Rabindranath Tagore's songs and also staged dance performances.
