Jan Garbarek & Ustad Fateh Ali Khan - Saga

[usamaqazi1]

Funny how the person whos posted it doesn't even know about the musicians. It is not INDIAN fusion, it is PAKISTANI fusion :)

[aSinnerMan7]

@usamaqazi1 classical indian music encompasses musicians from the entire indian subcontinent (which consists of pakistan). the actual nationality of Ustad Fateh Ali Khan is not important. in fact, there was no Pakistan when he was born in 1935!

[laelamarie1]

ignoring the commentary on this one; just want to let the uploader know - AWESOME AND FANTASTIC job - enjoyed this so much; the collaberation between the musicians I hope would carry over to the listeners.....

[zindagi975]

realy great ayaz kaka

[venu65315]

This classical musc is very much enriched by the extraordinary performance by Jan Garbarek, a very gifted artiste. They are the true represenaives of the respective countries and we are the luckiest of all to hear the great blending and rendering. venu5315

[atharrasul]

This is good but is there any version of this song in Ustad Fateh Ali Khan's voice without Jan Garbarek's music? His trumpet didn't do it for me. Want to hear UFAK unplugged. Thanks

[defdeezy]

@atharrasul it's a saxophone bro

[atharrasul]

@defdeezy I don't think so. Saxophone is a bit too dark and heavy.. anyway..

[aqadirlokhandwala]

This is great ! ! ! amazing and awe some !!!!

Great combination of west and east !!!! Heavenly experience !

[MultiKhanpathan]

amazing

[MultiKhanpathan]

i luv dis its amazing n the solo of jan is too gud i heard this more than 100 times n still i want to listen it more n more.................

[TheShumailkhan]

[Teddyb1939]

I don`t care who it is or what country they are from,all I know is that it is great music. Inventive , melodic A lovely mix of cultural sounds. Great stuff.

[darekw61]

piękna muzyka

[ravidesalem]

no need to be offended, whatever makes all happy !! just enjoy the music !

[Boossology]

Merci Monsieur Garbarek!

[jeffreycollins]

I don't know where I originally heard this song before. But just opening up this page and hearing the beginning of this amazing song, I knew I had heard it before once late at night and it made for an incredible journey in the car.

Thanks for reuniting me with this dream.

[jonsi59]

wundervolle Musik, danke für diesen Upload

[dubious26]

u just get to absorb it naturally..

[ahsanleo]

Nusrat Father's name also ustaad fatel ali khan but This Ustaad fateh ali khan also a great music scholar and belong to Patiala gharana

[maidoodesu]

very nice ! です.

[aizikhan]

its not indian classical ,its pakistani classical

[drnavinsingh]

@aizikhan this is hindustani classical. classical music of india dates back 2 millenia and has branched into hindustani and carnatic offshoots. this music originated long before pakistan came into being and insha allah will outlive pakistan.

[alihammadshah]

@drnavinsingh we have equal right to call this music ours as you have the same right. This music doesn't belong to india which exist now. it belongs to india which included pakistan.

[drnavinsingh]

@alihammadshah you are right. you have every right to call it your own. it belongs to India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan. Though most of the gharanas originated in and stayed in India. And don't forget the hindu roots of Dhrupad gayaki from which Khayaal gayaki has evolved.

[ravidesalem]

what is pakistani classical music?? its like saying this is the son of no one!!!

[alihammadshah]

@ravidesalem dude that is straight out dumb ass comment.

[TheShoro]

Wonderful, amazing! Good bless you :sennerMan,

[jabasong]

Jan's saxophone sounds so soulful and shenai-ish!!! Rest of it pretty pedestrian...

[zad1262]

@angelartfly1 - I think you are referring to Ustad NUSRAT Fateh Ali Khan, the Qawwali singer.

This is Ustad Fateh Ali Khan, the Pakistani maestro of the Patiala Gharana.

[laddernonleader]

this like from india! jan garbarek playing like some tradicional indus players , its very interest ! very deep his soul to understand it and to do reflections and communication in the music. respekt

[sobank]

It is indus music and indus is not in india its in paksitan.

[laddernonleader]

sobank! i said its LIKE, you know, please read the words, not just see those... indus pakistan? what? read again, i dont know what do you say..

[ithmam27]

where did u get dis? this is awsome

[sobank]

There is a whole cd of it. was sold in toronto for $30 bucks and is worth every penny of it.

[Faakhir07]

Exceptional!

But Garbarek over did his part! Big time! It could've been even better with an even mix between the two

[TheGetva]

it's great. but i think, the man who singing, not the legendary singer, Nusrat Fateh ali Khan. It's not his voice.

Exsuse me for bad english

[Dashingzeb]

He is Ustad Fateh Ali Khan..... Father of all singers....

[dreamhassan]

its not nusrat

this family is Patiala gharana.

[casper9211]

Please note this is not NFAK this ustad Fateh Ali Khan and this recording was done in germany in early 90's

[AhadVedux84]

This song has been added to my Favorites. :)

[AdeelHassan]

RIP Ustad Nusrat!

[veertarun1]

Beautiful Composition.....

Awesome.....

[keremtuna]

amazing...

[aditizzzz]

Woww....!!! :)

[urmadgirl]

i like this song too much kese lage waooooooooooooooo smooth music

[khawajanaveed1]

Ustad Fateh is great no doubt, but there is so little of him on U-TUBE. I have a few of his PTV recordings but those are DAT FILES. I dont know how to change the format and upload them on U-TUBE

[Backbencher1]

I simply love da track, its awesome.

[crockogold]

is Gabarek the world's best tenor sax player?

[Mulwany]

to me he is...

[ScooterNerd]

I know...his name brought Nusrat to mind.

[ScooterNerd]

Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan...singer beyond comparison.

[desiny]

It is Fateh Ali Khan not Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan

[ksuklal]

His full name is Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan.

[Thothali]

Ustad Fateh Ali Khan, one of the trio of legends. The other two being Ustad Amanat Ali Khan and Ustad Hamid Ali Khan.

In turn the next generation has given us gems like Asad Amanat Ali Khan, Shafqat Amanat Ali Khan (Fuzon band and 'Mitwa' fame) and Amanat Ali - who was a competitor in a singing competition on an Indian channel and found much fame.

[dreamhassan]

amant ali( SA RE GA MA ) fame is not belong to this family

[hiphopperarsal]

@Thothali Dont forget Ustad bade ghulam ali khan

[desiny]

@ksuklal they both are two different guys, Fateh Ali Khan presented here and Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan are two different guys, Nusrat's father name was Fateh Ali khan but Fateh Ali khan in this video is not him, this Fateh Ali Khan belong to Patiala Gharana.

[alphaamplitude]

Love the Ustads Voice ... GOD bless him

[Charline1888]

The Saxophone lives !

[OmriLahavComposer]

His playing is just perfect, every note exactly when and how it should be played... Love him!

[betbowt]

Gotta love the way Garbarek swings it.

[RG769]

Ustad Fateh Ali khan you are  the best classical musician alive today. I want this track to be last music before I die. If I listen to this track ten thousand more times then I am ready go to heaven or hell without reservation.Sinner you are the super man!, super recording. Jan 's best collaboration by far.

[sightsandsoundsofpak]

he is not with us anymore sweetie pie. may God rest his soul.

[alihammadshah]

what!! when he died?

[hassansaeed]

No he didnt .. he is still Alive!! This is Ustad Bare Fateh Ali Khan of the Patiyala Gharana not the Qawwal Fateh ali khan.

[sightsandsoundsofpak]

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh thanks for the info mate

[alihammadshah]

infact i came to know he lives in my city islamabad

[Ratnoo]

You r already in heaven RG...cherish your moments...cheers...i am spellbound by this ...thanks sinner

[vannliljer]

Yes, I just said that it would be great to hear Garbarek with Nusrat also. We used his music alot with the yogies in Oslo in the eighties. Singing the mantras, and dancing sufi. Love from Prema, who has changed username.

[premaristo]

Bravo Garbarek. Nydelige portrett-fotografier.

Du var norges vakreste mann i mange år, synes nå jeg da. Og for en karakter, og musikalsk genialitet. Hvilken produktivitet og originalitet. Heia Østfold!

Skulle gjerne ha hørt deg med Nusrat også. Han er rå.

Stå på i mange år til! Med beste ønsker om lykke og god helse.

[alihammadshah]

he is not nusrat fateh ali khan, he is just Fateh Ali Khan gr8 Classical Singer. Nusrat Fateh is a gr8 qawali singer

[lebarcelona]

hmm im loving it,now its on my fav. lists!

BARCELONA

from Philippines

[sobank]

the cd was sold in sam records for $30 bucks. (toronto, canada)

best bet is to get it from amazon. and trust me guys its money worth spent.

[kingkoeller]

Jan Garbarek's music is so deep....This music reminds me of a time so very long ago, etched into my consciousness...

[kingkoeller]

We drove through the small farm towns to the big city...Her touch was like a celebration, a tingling sensation, nerve endings alive, we knew that our love was growing, so real, pulling over the car, Trucks whizzing by at 70MPH, lost in embrace, the horn honks,

no-one hears... two souls ...one soul...

[hersheybar1966]

Nice!

[amadahi]

Fantastic in every ways!Thank you!

[PunkPanther667]

now thats what i call a divine combination!

[rOxinhoPKK]

maravilhoso!!

[Sun2Star999]

Great video, well done! I have loved this song for a long time - it is so deep.

[metallikafreakabc]

This is Ustad Fateh Ali Khan(Late Ustad Amanat Ali Khan's brother) not the Maestro Nusrat Fateh Ali khan. A great classical singer from Pakistan like his late brother. Pakistan is very fertile and rich in classical singing which unfortunately is dying down over the years.

Great Music by Jan Garbarek with Sax and Drums and equally beautiful melody by the Ustaad Fateh Ali Khan. A simply breathtaking cross-cultural mix of music and sound ~East meeting West. Great Work. Bravo. I loved it.

[aSinnerMan7]

I know its not Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. who said he was?

[AKASLOVERBOY]

@metallikafreakabc absolutely right :)

[haanbhyee]

the info give sez jazz fusion...

[haanbhyee]

correction...ustad fateh ali khan was pakistani. not indian

[aSinnerMan7]

and whom are you correcting?

[metallikafreakabc]

Thanks for correcting. Pakistan is so great in classical music with BIG names. Unfortunately, Don't appreciate when our talent and sons of soil are considered as Indian.

[shashi13m]

Indian-Pakistani, kya Farak padta hai, sab ek hi toh hain.

[metallikafreakabc]

Sorry Dude, without any hatred to anyone, Pakistanis are way different from Indians in many ways. Ciao. Peace!!!

[saqibtahir]

I agree. We Pakies can talk from both sides of mouth.

[alihammadshah]

@haanbhyee he is pakistan .."was pakistani"!

[elianasita]

Meraviglioso!!! grazie di cuore

[globalempire]

WoW

AskTamkin

London

[jawadahmad77]

I love this, reminds me of the Mekaal Hasan Band. Can some one point me towards more quality ragga jazz fusion??

[waqarali77]

I am literally very happy to see the knowledge you people possess on classical music and specifically of Ustad Fateh Ali Khan. I have many relations with him first of being my Maamu (elder brother of my mom). May The Almighty bless him and given even more life to serve our sub-continental traditional & classical music.

[pampoenbeck]

if there is anyone who loves music, then listen to music that that makes you happy.

jan garbareck does that for me!.

[Asifvh]

I hope you realise how lucky you are to be so close to the GREATEST classical singer ever. I am a fan of the Ustad for the last 20 years or so and I am fascinated by the depth of talent he has been blessed with.

[penta15786]

Could you be kind enough to tell us a bit about the sons of Ustad Amanat Ali Khan & Ustad Fateh Ali Khan. This will help in knowing where all the family members are and what they are doing now.

[hassansaeed]

Ustad amanat Ali Khan had 3 sonns .. Asad Amanat Ali .. Amjad Amanat Ali and Shafqat Amanat Ali ...

Ustad Fateh Ali Khans son is Rustam Fateh Ali ..

Ustad Amanat Ali and Fateh Ali have a younger brother .. Ustad Hamid Ali Khan and he has 3 or 4 sons i think ..

[dehajji]

ustad fateh ali classic Jan Garbarek niceone

[Dashingzeb]

Simply Classic..

What a fusion of two Maestros...

Thankx for posting it mate..

The Pakistani video of this song is even better.. It was shot in the northern areas of Pakistan...

[ScooterNerd]

I know...I just love NFAK because he introduced me to the whole Middle Eastern thing...and I know he's passed now too...

[ScooterNerd]

Long live Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan...

[aSinnerMan7]

For the record, this is Ustad Fateh Ali Khan, not Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan.

[answersquestioned]

Thanks for pointing this out. Owning this album, I assumed wrong until your comment. Wikipedia among other sources helped me further

[fareeeedzb]

Thanks for making the distinction. I was telling myself that that doesn't sound like Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan's voice at all.

[fahadjaan]

i listen once this classic from ustad ji very long time ago, in a pakistani drama,s play back music. after this i tried hard to find this but couldnt find in any way, thanx dear bro that u uploaded this great ragae beat.i m listening almost 60th time since i found this earlier today.

[coolmale3k]

outstanding work...Pakistani classical singers are always the best.

[miqbalmian]

Two greats create great thing. The whole Album is awesome. I m fond of "Pitayala Gharana" A great Pakistani Music Family. No one come to near in Khiyaal singing to this family.

[b]Contd...[/b]

[miqbalmian]

Start from General Khan, Colonial Khan, then Ustaad Amanat Ali Khan and Ustaad Fateh Ali Khan, then Ustaad Hamid Ali Khan and Asad Amanat Ali Khan they all are kings in their type of Music(Ragae).

Now the sons of Ustaad Hamid Ali Khan and Rustam Fateh Ali Khan(the son of Ustaad Fateh Ali Khan) comming in main stream of this family.

I love all of u great Khans of Pitiala Gharana. U r proud of Pakistan.

[SinoYank]

Let's not forget the black sheep of the family: the Wrath of Khan, who squanders his musical talents and harasses beloved Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock.

[miqbalmian]

If u r talking about the sons of Hamid Ali Khan, they r childes. But they will not betray their family traditions. In Pakistan Music Conference (A music festival) I listened them. They sung Darbari(Ragae) with great command.

[gallian98]

good work bro..keep it up..

[kamasutra1959]

greatest!!!

[sacredspirityes]

Simply exceptional....

[truepakistaniblood]

Simply Awesome !! Long live Pakistani Singers ;)

[rajeswari51]

Yes. Pakistan singers are great-Fateh Ali Khan saheb, Amanat Ali Khan Saheb, Nusrat fateh Ali Khan Saheb, Sabri Bros,Mehdi Hasan saheb. The list seems endless. I had the pleasure and privilege ot hear live the great Salamat Khan saheb of Salamat-Nazakat duo.I wish Ustad Fatesh Ali Khan saheb would visit India.

[sufian1985]

best music ever listened.

[sonumaani]
