Sain Zahoor and band in concert

Mystic music from Pakistan with Sain Zahoor.  Traditional magical melodies and spiritual and religious verses blend and weave a beautiful insight into the devotional musical traditions.

The University of Bradford is delighted to welcome back the transcendent and genuinely awe-inspiring music of Sain Zahoor and band, following the sell-out success of their concert in the University Atrium in June 2008. Sain Zahoor is a phenomenon. Winner of the 2006 BBC  World Music Voice of the Year Award without ever having released a record, Sain’s music emanates from the Sufi tradition and was honed singing in dargagh (shrines) and mela in his native Ojara district of Pakistan.  Since then Sain has travelled the world offering audiences the opportunity to come; the closest anyone alive will get to being in the presence of the Sufi mystics of yore, like Bulle Shah and Shah Hussain.

When : Friday 11 June, 7.30pm.

The magical Music of Mali can claim no finer proponents of that incredible sound than these two Maestros, Ali Farke Toure & Toumani Diabate.  Playing Guitar and traditional Kora, their mingling vibrations have long delighted listeners since their first collaboration, “In the Heart of the Moon” back in 2005.  Now we have another beauty to enjoy in the form of this new release on the ever joyous World Circuit Records, simply titled “Ali & Toumani”.

Anyone who loves the beauty of music and the simplicity of melody and harmony should hear this.

Ranajit Sengupta, arguably Kolkata’s finest Sarod player will be appearing with his fusion music project, Anouraag,  on 20th February for the Milapfest organised program in the Bridgewater Hall in Manchester.  This fascinating project features Ranajit and Miguel Guldimann and his unique 8 Stringed guitar, adapted by him to feature resonant sympathetic strings similar to a Sitar or Sarod.

This event will take place in The Barbirolli Room at The Bridgewater Hall.

The Sarod is one of the most popular and prominent instruments in Hindustani (northern Indian) classical music, known for its deep, weighty and introspective sound. Ranajit Sengupta is a highly talented performer, composer and lecturer. At a young age, Ranajit has already captured a very respectable place in the hearts of Indian music lovers through his soulful solo performances.
