West-Bengal is the hotspot of folk culture. This state has traditionally been the abode of folk culture in India. Like other parts of the world, with varied form of music, drama and painting, folk culture represents the rustic inheritance of West-Bengal. The term folk culture is concern ‘folk’ means ‘lok’ or the ‘people in general. Folk culture is thus developed, maintained and nurtured mainly by uneducated common people of rural Bengal. The origin of folk culture in deeply embedded in the religion, festival, education. health, emotion, love, marriage, entertainment, loneliness and in the various range of human sentiments. Unfortunately, with passage of time, influx of urbanization and westernization have forced Bengal folk culture to confront a tremendous challenge at present day. In this paper, I have tried to explore the dying folk music of West-Bengal. In doing so, I have chosen the Baul, Bolan, Jhumur and Bhadu songs.
