Ustad Naseeruddin Saami & The Saami Brothers with Special Guest Zeb BangashPresented in Partnership with District of Raga
Prepare to be moved when Pakistani musicians Ustad Naseeruddin Saami and Zeb Bangash join forces to explore the spiritual healing power of khayal music. Saami, the last living practitioner of a mesmerizing ancient 49-note microtonal vocal scale, is a master of both khayal—a genre of Indian classical vocal music—and qawwali, a form of devotional music performed by Sufi musicians. Saami will be joined by his sons, The Saami Brothers, for this special event that carries forward the family’s khayal and qawwali music legacy.
Pakistani pop sensation Zeb Bangash, who is also Saami’s star student, opens the show by debuting a khayal work.
This concert is presented in partnership with the Center for Cultural Vibrancy.
