Pandit Ajoy Chakrabarty
is one of the most talented and versatile vocalists in India. His career flourished under the guidance of Pandit Gyan Prakash Ghosh, and in 1971 he became a disciple of Ustad Munawar Ali Khan.
He has continued to prove his excellence in various genres of music, and was the first Indian classical vocalist invited to perform in Pakistan. The vocal style or Gayaki of Ustad Bade Ghulam Ali Khan suited Ajoy admirably and fitted into his musical frame and personality.
In 1977 he joined the Sangeet Research Academy SRA as a scholar where he made a significant contribution to the vocal tradition both as a teacher and as a performer. He emerged as a true inspiration to many young aspirants of this art.
Ajoy has also established Shrutinandan, an institution for imparting practical knowledge of Indian vocals to musically gifted children and music lovers.
