He practiced for 18 hours a day, even on his deathbed he was thinking only of his music. He was a great man and a great soul and it shows in his music. You all talk of his greatness but to him he was just a beginner in music, he used to say that he knew nothing. This is how great he is, he could not see his own greatness and only the greatness of the music and maata sarasvati

Everybody keeps talking about Amjad Ali Khan... But Ali Akbar Khan is far superior... in diversity of style and at suggesting emotions.

Saying I like this is ludcrious. It is simply marvelous and spiritual. This is what real music is supposed to be about.

the true son of Baba, Allaudin Khan: the great "old man of Sarod", but, he is more, for he will live forever in our memories, as teacher, Brother of Annapurna Devi and:"the sound of Sarod", around the world!

One Ali left India and the other Ali embraced Mother India for ever. As far as Maa Sarasvati concerns both are muslims. It is incompatible in their culture to pray openly to a hindu goddess. For them and the public just a showcase. Money is very important. Both are great artist.

each devotee (there is no doubt that both ali akbar khan and amjad ali khan dedicated their lives to music) has his own ways of praying. but yes, it's good to have favourite :)

Absolute bliss! This only proves how devotion and dedication to your instrument can truelly change perspectives on music. R.I.P Ustad Ali Akbar Khan

@LegacyKillah its unnecessary comment. amjad ali khan nowdays is no good, but listen to his early years. there is a deepness to his old recordings. moreover he also plays a more powerfull tantrakari style. he has made huge innovations in technique, and his own technique is just mind blowing. music has various aspects with giants in each area.

Thank you so much for uploading this...It's very difficult to find classical music on youtube
