Krishna Chakraborty, an established name in the world of Indian classical music, belongs to the younger generation of talented vocalists.

The promise of an exceptional voice, noted for its power, range and sensitivity, attracted attention when she was only a child. After initial grooming under her mother, Krishna's training was taken over by maestros like Pandit Bholanath Bhatt, Ustad Mustaq Hussain Khan, Rarpada Chakraborty, Nibritti Bua Sarnaik and Pandit V.G. Jog.

This natural gift won early recognition when Krishna received the first prize at the All India Music competition in Allahabad, and the best performer award for classical vocal music from the late President Zakir Hussain in the inter-university youth festival at Delhi in 1963.

An alumnus of Lady Irwin School and I.P. College in Delhi, Krishna performs at leading music festivals in India, including the Dover Lane Music Conference, Birendra Kishore Memorial Music Festival and at the Ameer Khan School of music. She has also performed at various places in U.K and Japan.

Her CD Krishna Chakraborty, Classical - Vocal was produced by The Grammaphone Company of India Ltd., Calcutta, India.
