Get ready for some Sufi soul from Pakistan’s reigning prince of qawwali music, Asif Ali Khan and his nine-member ensemble. A disciple of the great Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Asif Ali Khan is widely regarded as the music’s finest living exponent. He is praised for his inventiveness and distinctive approach to this enchanting musical style. Dating back 700 years, qawwali is characterized by full-throated vocals and energetic rhythms, ranging from meditative and trance-like to suddenly thrilling and ecstatic—a genuinely inspiring experience. Of his craft, Khan says, “we aren’t singing as much as listening to God’s instructions with our souls.”
