Subrata De was initiated in the art of playing Hindustani Classical Sitar Music at the tender age of seven under the guidance of Sri Amarjeet Singh of Jamshedpur and later under Suramani Bauri Bandhu Sethi, from where he has imbibed the essential elements of Sitar with great devotion.
As professional artist, he has been awarded Sangeet Praveen by Prayag Sangeet Samiti, Allahabad and Sangeet Bhaskar by Pracheen Kala Kendra, Chandigarh. He has been associated with All India Radio as a graded artist since 1990. The release of few audio cassettes & CD’s like ‚Meditation de la India’ or ‚Ganga - River of life’ also created a milestone in his musical career
Subrata has given numerous performance in various  International & major festivals all over India and in numerous countries in Asia, Europe and America. He dedicated himself to extend and create an environment of Classical Music in rural areas of India and in abroad with leading organizations and eminent dancers. Apart from this, he has been associated with various cultural organisations as a sitarist & cultural coordinator.
Subrata De will be accompanise by Saibal Chatterjee, an out-standing exponent of Tabla and disciple of Tabla wizard Pandit Janan Praksash Ghosh.

Subrata De lernte Sitar spielen von Shri Amarjeet Singh aus Jamshedpur und später von Suramani Bauri Bandhu Sethi aus Bhubaneswar, Orissa. Später erlernte er die Feinheiten der indischen Musik von Sitar Maestro Pandit Manilal Nag. Subrata ist ein hervorragender Konzert-Sitarist  und Dozent an mehreren renommierten Musikschulen Indiens. Sein spontaner Ausdruck der starken Emotionen und seine tiefe Kenntnis der Sitar sind besonders überzeugend. Er ist ein Meister der Raga Musik und besitzt die seltene Fähigkeit, die Lebendigkeit und Einzigartigkeit jedes Musikstückes hörbar zu machen.

Saibal Chatterjee, Tabla-Spieler aus Kolkata, ist ein Schüler des Tabla-Meisters Pandit Janan Praksash Ghosh.
