Taleem - Ustad Shujaat Khan

A departure from the concert format, this intimate recital presented a fascinating journey into the oldest form of Indian music to exist. Conducted by Ustad Shujat Khan, a Grammy-nominated sitarist.

29 September 2018

The development of a raag was deconstructed and then effortlessly woven back in a vivid illustration of the intricacies of Hindustani classical music. Ustad Shujaat Khan, the seventh-generation scion of the Imdadkhani Gharana, also presented the gayaki ang - a style of playing the sitar that mimics the sound of human voice.
