UstadeMaa Zila Khan - Musical Evening
When: September 24, 2011
Time: 7:00 pm
Where: Chinmaya Maruti, Andover, MA
Acclaimed for her mesmerizing
vocals, UstadeMaa Zila Khan has been called ‘the Sufi legend of the new
millennium.’ She is the daughter and disciple of the late maestro
sitarist Ustad Vilayat Khan, and was the first woman in the Khan family -
whose musical lineage goes back seven generations - to sing in public. A
leading Sufi singer in India, she performs in the Imadkhana gharana
(tradition) of her esteemed family. In addition to Sufi songs, she has a
commanding style in classical ragas and has revived the old-world style
of ghazals (semi-classical songs).
This program marks her annual Boston appearance.
