Mehfil-e-Sama’a

About

Qawwali is a form of devotional music that has its roots in Sufi traditions, characterized by its powerful lyrics, rhythmic clapping, and energetic delivery. This genre transcends religious and cultural boundaries, offering a deep spiritual experience through music. Among the greatest exponents of Qawwali is the legendary Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, whose incredible voice and unparalleled mastery of the form brought Qawwali to global prominence. His contributions to the genre have inspired countless artists and continue to resonate with audiences worldwide.

In tribute to the maestro, the Indian Music Experience Museum is pleased to present Mehfil-e-Sama’a, a Delhi-based Sufi-Hindustani classical ensemble, for a special evening of Qawwali. Composed of talented artists originally from Kerala who have made Delhi their home, Mehfil-e-Sama’a has performed on over 300 stages in India and abroad, earning acclaim for their expertise in Sufi, Qawwali, Ghazals, and Hindustani classical music.

For this concert, Mehfil-e-Sama’a will perform a selection of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan’s most iconic Qawwalis, bringing his timeless music to life with their profound understanding and deep passion for the Sufi tradition.

Join us at the Indian Music Experience Museum for an evening that promises to be both spiritually uplifting and musically transcendent. Don’t miss this chance to experience the magic of Qawwali in honor of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan.
