Indian Filmmaker Plucks Musical Strings in Pakistan

Fareeda Khannum of Pakistan recently gave a concert of ghazals in Chennai to a huge audience at the Music Academy. The article in the local newspaper mentioned how she had to abandon a career in classical music for lack of good teachers and audience and had to settle for ghazal singing.

What a pity. This nauseating culture of Islamism nearly destroyed musical tradition and culture of Indian Classical Music in Pakistan. Hope it will notbecome extinct. Music can build brotherhood between peoples.

Pakistan is way backward in it`s music.

not seen...........cannot comment on the documentry...........

classical musicians in Pakistan had to jam with the rock bands in order to survive...........now we see the ``confusion`` that goes in the name of fusion (sufi!!) bands with sons of classical musicians acting like rock stars and singing those incorrect taans and ragas with the bass guitars.........

now this desperation is creeping in the indian classical music to some extent.


Lahol!!
