Ustad Ahmed Jan Thirakwa (the Mount Everest of tabla!)
AHMED JAN THIRAKWA (1892-1976) Thirakwa was born to a musical family in Moradabad, Uttar Pradesh State. Ahmad Jan was really drawn to the art of tabla playing when he heard Ustad Munir Khan. He took his early lessons from his uncles Sher Khan, Faiyaz Khan and Bashwa Khan. Thirakwa became a student of Ustad Munir Khan at the age of 12. Since then, he put His heart to his riyaz (practice). His guru, Ustad Munir Khan, made him practice nearly 16 hours a day with half-hour breaks every now and then. Thirakwa had barely six hours to sleep. Thirakwa had a rich diet of nutritious food and milk so that he could keep up this grueling regimen. He acquired his nickname in an interesting manner. It is said that Thirakwa's devoted practice and natural talent pleased Ustad Munir Khan so much that Thirakwa became his favourite disciple. Munir Khan's father, Kale Khan used to watch Thirakwa play. One day Kale Khan remarked how nicely his son's pupil's fingers "danced on the drum". "Thirakwa" came from the word "thirakh", or "shimmering thunder" - like the quality of a Kathak dancer's feet in action. Soon he was to be "Thirakwa, tabla master with dancing fingers". The romantic and serene moods Thirakwa was able to express with his playing was something unbelievable. Audiences would sit engrossed in his solos for as long as he wished to play. He kept on doing his riyaz and the standard of his playing was unbelievable right up until the end. There is only one Thirakwa! Source <b>...</b>

Ustad Sarahang - Shad Kon Jon Man
Ustad Sarahang at his Kabul Concert with sharif ghazal, eltaf hussain, farid and ustad asef. His medal count reached 20, a status earned by fewer than a handful of musicians in the world, and by far the youngest musician to earn so many titles and medals. Ustad Sarahang once said that if he were to die in India, he was to be buried next to the tomb of Baydel, but if he were to die in Afghanistan, he requested to be buried in Kharabat. Upon his last trip to India in 1982, Ustad Sarahang fell gravely ill and was hospitalized and ordered not to sing and to keep his talking to a minimum. But Ustad Sarahang disregarded the orders of his doctors and continued his performance which earned him yet another medal and with it the pride to the people of Afghanistan.

Aaoge Jab Tum Saajana (Jab We Met) - Ustad Rashid Khan
Amidst the roaring success of the foot-tapping Mauja Hi Mauja and the melodiousTum Se Hi, another gem from the movie Jab We Met has gone unnoticed. Aaoge Jab Tum O Saajana is melodious and has a classical touch to it. Sung beautifully by Ustad Rashid Khan, this song is four and a half minutes of sheer pleasure. Aaoge Jab Tum O Saajana, Angana phool khilenge Barasega saawan, barasega saawan, jhoom jhoomake Do dil aise milenge This song is composed by the guest composer, Sandesh Shandilya, who has given us songs like Suraj Hua Maddham from Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gam, Bhaage Re Man from Chameli, Laree Chootee from Ek Chalis Ki Last Local. The song is slow and melodious. Irhsad Kamil's words are simple and sweet. The best thing about the song is certainly singing. Ustad's voice has a folky touch and works well with the song. The song opens with his powerful alaap. Ustad sings with ease. The way he ends the 'phool khilenge' and 'do dil aise milenge' is as if he is lazy to complete the lines, and that adds a special effect to the song. His expressions are so genuine, one can feel the longing for the beloved. The song ends with a flute piece and Ustad's sargam. A perfect end to a great song.

ustad fateh ali khan raag jonpori on atv post by zagham
ustad fateh ali khan live on atv morning show . Bade Fateh Ali Khan (born: 1935) is amongst the foremost Khayal vocalists alive today in Pakistan, and the last significant exponent of the Patiala Gharana (stylistic lineage). He is the younger of the singing duo "Amanat Ali-Fateh Ali", who enjoyed immense prestige and success in Pakistan as well as India, until the demise of Amanat Ali Khan (1932-1974). Amanat Ali-Fateh Ali became celebrities while still in their childhood in undivided India, and achieved their highest official recognition in 1969, when the President of Pakistan conferred on them the Pride of Performance Medal. The "Bade" (elder) prefix got attached to Fateh Ali's name after younger Pakistani musicians with similar names started making waves with an entirely different genre of music. Fateh Ali and his late brother were trained by their father, Akhtar Hussain, a distinguished vocalist in the patronage of the princely state of Patiala in colonial, undivided India. Their grandfather, Ali Baksh, also served the same court, and was a cofounder of the Patiala gharana. The prodigious talent of Amanat Ali- Fateh Ali received early encouragement at the Patiala court. They had a glorious debut in 1945 at Lahore, sponsored by the influential connoisseur, Pandit Jeevanlal Mattoo Their breakthrough came at the All-Bengal Music Conference in Calcutta in 1949, when Amanat Ali was 17, and Fateh Ali was 14, after which they never looked back.
