Qwalies Collection — Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Complete MP3
The Qwalies Collection presents a comprehensive selection from Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan's recorded output — a curatorial project that attempts to represent the range of his qawwali across different periods, themes and performance styles. He is one of the classic qawwals of history, and a greatly famed name in the art of qawwali globally. Although his qawwali majorly depicts the ethnic Punjabi-Urdu sufi form, the scope of his recording career was broad enough that any honest collection must navigate between his deeply traditional work and his cross-cultural experiments.
