“The first time I saw Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan” is a deeply touching narration by Pakistani writer, Mohammed Hanif of the incident when he first saw NFAK in his village in 1972. The eight years old Hanif was so moved that he decided his career even before the Party’s performance ended ” He wanted to sit behind the large man (Nusrat) , clap, sing and make the audience go wild ” … Did he live his dream ? The program also takes a very wise take on accusations following the “Global Nusrat” …… A Must Listen..
The term ” first contact” is often used when a new life-form is discovered in Alien Movies. This Concert performance of NFAK was nothing less than ” The First Contact” of the french audience present in the crowd with Music of “Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan”. When coming out of the concert, most of them felt deeply moved or even transported to different reality (as they themselves reported), the last two hours were imprinted on their lives forever….
Before I post the audio and video links to this performance, lets first talk about this concert in particular and why I feel that it’s best ever. First, NFAK was in his best improvisation mood that day, placed in front of a almost french crowd, who he knew wouldn’t understand a word he utters, sargams and fireworks were the best he could do, and it lead to some of the best improvisations ever.
