Unforgettable Sufis

 
Ustad Shujaat Husain Khan
Synopsis

Unforgettable Sufis brings together the eternal poetry of mystic poets, Kabir Sahib and Hazrat Amir Khusrau. The evocative lyrics drawn from their poetry explore the myriad shades of love and spell the rich experience of musical ecstasy. The most fascinating aspect is that these renditions are blend with the melody of Indian Classical music, making this album a timeless gift of love for the yearning souls who long to be in communion with the divine. Kabir Sahib and Hazrat Amir Khusrau are among the greatest mystics who shared the rapture and bliss of being in love with the divinity. Their poetry resonates with the loving adoration towards God and fills the heart with devotion and surrender for the Guru who embodies God. Hazrat Amir Khusrau is also credited with enriching Hindustani classical music by introducing Persian and Arabic elements in it, and was the originator of the khayal and tarana styles of music. The invention of the tabla is also traditionally attributed to Hazrat Amir Khusrau. Both the Sufi mystic poets are held in high esteem all over the world.
