This 2002 release of
Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan
's songs by
ARC Music
(previously released by
Navras Records
) presents four songs recorded during a concert that took place in London in December 1989 at
the Kufa Gallery
. Listeners hear a singer in perfect mastery of his
qawwali
art, singing in different languages, such as Farsi, Punjabi, and old Hindi. Nobody can remain indifferent to these songs and this great singer, even though one may not understand the
poetry
. Each song is a prayer that is intimately shared with everyone listening to him. Simply magical. ~ Bruno Deschenes
