Drei lange, anmutige "Ragas" von dem pakistanischen Meister auf dem Sarod, einem 25 (!)-saitigen Lauteninstrument, welches durch ALI AKBAR KHAN auch einem grösseren westlichen Publikum bekannt wurde. Subtile Tablas ergänzen die virtuosen Improvisationen, die niemals aufdringlich erscheinen, und von sanften Drones durchzogen sind. Ambient-Musik der anderen Art.
"Asad was born in 1963 to the famous violinist K.H. Qizilbash, who was responsible for closing the gap between western and eastern classical music. After attending a concert performed by his future Master, Ustad Amjad Ali Khan, Asad decided to devote himself to the instrument.
Today, Asad Qizilbash has the honour to perform regularly at his President's house where Head of State Representatives, Monarchs, Diplomats and guests from all around the world have witnessed and appreciated his unique style of classical narration. PESHAWAR: Peshawar is the capital of the North-West Frontier Province in Pakistan. the city, once called Purushapura, city of flowers, was the capital of the ancient Greco-Buddhist centre of Gandhara. over the centuries, it has been the entry point to invaders, conquerors and refugees. it remains an important military crossroad today. Asad Qizilbash' Sarod recital in Peshawar was carried out under extremely perilous and rather singular circumstances. An outstanding performance, a moment of freedom from war." [label info]
