Muazzam

Muazzam Qawwali — Pakistani Sufi Music MP3

Muazzam — literally "the exalted" or "the great" — is a qawwal whose name in the Pakistani sufi music circuit carries real weight. He has been singing qawwali in different languages since a young age, and his best qawwalis are a phenomenal fusion of eastern and western musical sensibilities that took him beyond the usual horizons of regional popularity. The Pakistani qawwali circuit has produced many performers who are well-known within their regional audience without achieving the international visibility that Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan or the Sabri Brothers reached, and Muazzam represents this category of serious, accomplished performer with a substantial domestic following.
