Prom 45 – Amjad Ali Khan – Sarod Master

Part of the BBC Proms.

Combining the rhythmic energy of the guitar with the expressive, singing quality of the human voice, the sarod is a defining sound of Indian classical music. One of the undisputed masters of the instrument, whose career spans more than six decades, Amjad Ali Khan is joined here by his sons Amaan Ali Bangash and Ayaan Ali Bangash, as well as leading exponents of the tabla and mridangam for a celebration of this versatile and expressive instrument.
