The Newah Organization of America (NOA) families are deeply saddened to hear about the recent passing of Legendary singer Mr. Ramesh Tamrakar at the age of 68 on Thursday, 25th January 2018 in Kathmandu, Nepal.
Mr Ramesh Tamrakar was a well renowned singer and his songs had reached our homes and hearts. He had touched the lives of many with his melodious voice through many beautiful Newari and Nepali Songs. Few of those songs are Kala ya tha chey, Laquili Durwar, Thaunwaila kanhay waila, Maya ray ratna, Yaadi yaad ma, Gundruk Pakauna pardaina, Bachna Janmay ko Nepali ma, Kalo kapal bulbulay alka, Mailay aakha ko bhakha and the list goes on. He had been active in the music industry since 70’s.
He was a well learned person with double Masters, in Mathematics and in Business Studies from Leeds University, UK and had also served as a General Manager for Sanskritik Sansthan. His family and friends remembers him as a very lively, loving and caring person with a charming personality.
NOA was honored to have Mr. Tamrakar as a special guest and perform at NOA’s 15th Annual Convention & General Meeting In 2016.
