In this grand evening of playing, Shakir Khan showcases the art of the Sitar with expert tabla accompaniment by Shahbaz Hussain.
Son of sitar maestro Ustad Shahid Parvez Khan and representing the eighth generational link in an unbroken chain of musical tradition, Shakir Khan stands out for his exquisite sense of sur (melody) and laya (rhythm) and is recognised as a shining star of his generation.
Shahbaz is a virtuoso Tabla player, and his solo performances have gained great recognition all over the world. He is highly sought after for his accompaniment skills by many of the great master musicians of India and Pakistan.
