Santidev Ghosh was a great exponent of Rabindra Sangeet. Santidev Ghosh was born on 7 May 1910 in the village of Bajapti near Chandpur. He was chosen by Tagore himself to be a teacher in Santiniketan and sent across India and even to Sri Lanka, Java and Bali to further his musical education for that purpose. Tagore also encouraged Ghosh to act and dance in the poet-laureate's dance dramas, for which Ghosh displayed an uncommon talent for singing, as well as dancing and acting.
