Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan & Party

Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan was a man of impressive, even daunting, stature. The emotional intensity and soaring power of his voice transcend all boundaries of language and religion and have popularised this beautiful and inspirational music beyond Muslim peoples to audiences worldwide.

Qawwali is the devotional music of the Sufis, the mystical sect of Islam, and is intended to elevate the spirit and bring both performer and listener closer to God. The illustrious Khan family of classical music masters has been developing the art of Qawwali for over six centuries, and today Nusrat is considered its greatest exponent. He is known as Shahen-Shah-a-Qawwali: The Brightest Star in Qawwali.
