I heard Nusrat <\/a><\/strong>in my teens – a set of classical music tapes that a friend from had.<\/p>\n

For long, I heard his qawwalis <\/em>– without understanding too much of the language – neither my Urdu nor my Punjabi are much to write home about. I can understand the gist, but the subtleties of the language are lost on me. For an entire period of time I listened to the qawalli Haq Ail Maula Ali<\/a> <\/em><\/strong>– on squeaky speakers and heard Haq Hari Maula Hari . <\/em> Loved his Live in Paris<\/a><\/strong> series of Qawwalis . Like most classical Qawwals<\/em>, Nusrat too had a classical training. Needless to say my favorites amongst all his qawwalis <\/em>have been the ones based on classical ragas.<\/p>\n

Today, I discovered that some kind soul had put up some of Nusrat’s pure classical recordings.\u00a0Some\u00a0beautiful music. Here is one that is especially enchanting. Raga Aahir Bhairav.<\/p>\n
