Bishnupur Gharana has a very simple, pure and artistic style which uses many ornaments(alankar) such as gamak, laykari, upej etc. All of the songs are written in four tuk or stanza. The sentiment (rasa) is very serene. There are also Santa, Veer, Karun, Sringer and Vatsalya rasa in these dhrupad songs.

Rabindranath Tagore loved and admired Bishnupur gharana. He learnt dhrupad music from Jadu Bhatta. He also composed lots of Rabindra Sangeet following the raga-raginis and tala system of Bishnupur gharana.
