Here is a powerful album from one of the most beautiful voices in this century: Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, the king of Qawwali.

Although the Kahn family had been developing a mastery of Qawwali (the singing of the devotional music of Islam) for over 600 years, Nusrat Fateh Ali Kahn originally had no intention of following the family tradition. It was a recurring dream--in which he was performing at a famous Muslim shrine at Ajmer, India--that finally convinced Nusrat to take up the study. Astonishingly, his dream came true in 1979. While visiting the same temple as a pilgrim, he was invited inside to sing. Nusrat was the first Qawwal ever to receive this honor.
Upon hearing Kahn's astonishingly elastic and superhuman voice, neither this story nor the artist's subsequent rise to international success seems unbelievable.
