This is a guest post by our dear friend Mr Asim Hussain, Doft forget to check his website at http:nusratfatehalikhan.cu.cc
Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan – Le Dernier Prophete
Touching Moments :- (1) Nusrat Saab discusses about his walid, and they all listen to his qawwali. (Some catching moments were lost due to camera focusing, Camera slowly focuses on Nusrat saabs while he is listening to his dad. And this changes/ hides the expression that might have caught on if nusrat saab’s was unaware of camera focusing.)
(2) Nusrat saab explaining Khayal, Dhrupad (Dhurpad as he calls) and sargam gayaki to the Brook, And brook goes oh yeah its like do, le, ri…() . Then nusrat saab trying to explain that some sur can be sthayi and some can be improvised (like komal, ati komal) by singing (this is what i interpreted)..
(3) When Nusrat saab, Rahat’s dad and rahat are doing riyaz. And rahat is making mistake.
(4) I love Dildar Hussain. He accompanies Nusrat saab in almost every concert.

Here Comes the video..
“Afreen” is a praise word for an audacious work.. Where in song NFAK praises the beauty of the beloved … .. I repeat the same words for the singer himself..
Check Out this Video… It features a Filmy – High Class NRI Wedding, and song plays in background… and see how perfectly it fits the scenes….. you may yourself say “Afreen Afreen”
A Few Artistic Views Of The legend
Nusrat teaching students at University of Washington 1993
University Of Washington invites Celebrity Visiting Artists every year for it’s Ethnomusicology Program. In 1992-93 they took a chance to Invite NFAK, hoping he wont turn up. To their surprise , NFAK happily agreed (eventually) … why hadn’t he … he was going to get great chance to spread his music to a completely new audience and ample resource for his musical-cross blendings.. .. The program was a huge success as not just students but even faculty members and artists from different universities as well as different parts of USA turned up for the program…the fact that his students became one of the most Hardcore NFAK fans ever was not at all surprising… He also gave one of his most memorable performances ever at Meany(University Theater) after huge request by students . NFAK was awarded an honorary Doctorate later by the University ……… What Follows is a writeup by Professor Hiromi Lorraine Sakata remembering NFAK’s Stay…
