Ashraf Sharif Khan is the worthy son of the briliiant Sitar maestro Ustad Muhammad Sharif Khan Poonchwala of the famous Poonch Gharana who has been a contemporary musician of late Ustad Vilayat Khan and Pandit Ravi Shankar.

Ashraf has been a child prodigy and has shown his immense talent in playing the sitar at the age of ten. He has been brought up in the Guru Sishya / Ustad to student tradition, inheriting a musical tradition handed down from father to son.

Ashraf's music combines an astounding technical proficiency with perfection in musical expression. The melodic beauty of his style, accentuated by his dynamic rhythmic development and the virtuoso technique provide an unique style of his own. His music transcends regional boundaries, and is accessible to all.

His first performance at the age of ten left a lusty impression on the music lovers of Pakistan.
He has toured all over Pakistan extensively after that.

@65naz1 ....... @ Thanks for your compliments.Ustad Shareef Khan Poonchwaley was the Globally recognized Sitar player of Pakistan. I honestly think we did not explore and introduce our very talent of Northern Indian Classical Music. Ashraf Sharif is his great son.
