Mon 22 Mar 7:30pm Symphony Hall

Following the death of the great Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, an artist who reached out to millions of people across the globe, the mantle of Nusrat’s genius fell upon the shoulders of his nephew Rahat. Rahat’s ecstatic vocals are the result of years of training at the feet of his superstar uncle, and he's also world-famous for his forays into Bollywood. After a sell-out performance with the CBSO in autumn 2009, Rahat now returns with his group of twelve musicians to perform a mixed repertoire of memorable Qawwalis and his greatest Bollywood hits, from _Akhiyan Udeek Diyaan_ and _Saason Ki Mala Se Simroon Mein_ to _Jag Soona Soona Laage_ and _Jiya Dhadak Dhadak_ from blockbuster films _Om Shanti Om_ and _Kalyug_, respectively. Expect an unforgettable evening as he and his extraordinary ensemble transport you into the rapturous realms of spiritual discovery.
