| | Qawwali - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Qawwali (قوٌالی) is the devotional music of the muslim Sufis. | | | A group of qawwali musicians, called a party, typically consists of eight or nine men including a lead singer, one or two side singers, one or two harmoniums (which may be played by lead singer, side singer or someone else), and percussion. | | | Qawwali music gained international exposure through the work of the late Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan of Pakistan, who was picked up by the Real World label and collaborated with many non-Sufi musicians in crossover efforts. |

| | QAWWALI : MusicWeb Encyclopaedia of Popular Music |
| | Qawwalis From Films Volume 1 on EMI India is an anthology of filmi qawwalis, sourced from flicks such as Mera Naam Joker, Zanjeer, Painter Babu and Karma and sung by filmi stars (playback singers) of the calibre of Asha Bhosle, Mukesh, Kishore Kumar, Manhar and Mahendra Kapoor. | | | 'Qawwali' (literally 'utterance' in Persian), like other Indian musical forms, is largely improvisatory in nature; it is reliant on the ability of the qawwal (qawwali singer) to mould the lyrics and rhythmic structure in such a way as to relate the emotional and religious content of the lyrics and stamp the performance with originality. | | | The music's aim is to touch the listener and attain a state of grace or enlightenment, a stateless state known as Ma'rifat. |

| | TablaHYPE presents Qawwali Mehfil - Saturday May 24th, 2003 |
| | Improvisation is a key element in Qawwali music, for it is the essence of the improvisation, which emphasizes the structure of the raag of the qawwal and helps the listener to embed oneself into the melody, message, and essence of the poetic journey. | | | Qawwali is music with a message – the Sufi message of love and peace – and has been sung to catchy melodies dating back as far as the thirteenth century. | | | Qawwali has three components: the melodic line, sung by one or more singers, the rhythm which is articulated on the drum (primarily the Tabla), and the pitch outline of the melody, which is constantly reinforced on the harmonium. |

| | What is Qawwali Music |
| | Qawwali considered as music is a group song performed by qawwals, professional musicians who perform in groups led by one or two solo singers. | | | Qawwali considered as an occasion is a gathering for the purpose of realizing ideals of Islamic mysticism through the ritual of listening to music', or sama'. | | | A Qawwali song normally begins with an Instrumental Prelude on the harmonium; then an Introductory Verse is sung as a solo recitative without drums, leading directly into the song proper: a mystical poem set to a strophic tune and performed by the entire group of Qawwals. |

| | As is traditional in qawwali, Nusrat and the side-singers will interject alap solos (listen here), and fragments of other poems or even improvised lyrics (listen here). | | | This in short took the form of improvised solos during the songs using the sargam technique, in which the performer sings the names of the notes he is singing (for example, in western notation it would be "do re mi"). | | | Nusrat's first public performance as leader of the family Qawwali group was in March 1965, at a studio recording broadcast as part of an annual music festival called Jashn-e-Baharan organized by Radio Pakistan. |

| | Qawwali music has been bastardized and secularized in India and Pakistan (Begg 35) not just because the music is so infectious, but because the lyrics, if listened to "straight," sound like a call to drink and make love. | | | The Qawwali ensemble is led by the singer, who also plays harmonium, and is backed by other singers (who clap along), a drummer (who plays dholak), and sometimes a sitar, tabla, or other instrument. | | | One of the Qawwal (singer)'s primary duties is to fulfill the needs of the listeners; thus, Qawwali is a gathering for listeners. |

| | With a tradition dating from the tenth century, qawwali masters think of themselves as pilots and their listeners as passengers on a journey that brings them to another plane of consciousness, one that is closer to God. | | | The intricate, lush layers of qawwali has gained a huge following not only to those interested in the cultural aspects of Sufism and other traditions of Eastern mysticism, but among younger dance music audiences, who are devoted to genres such as trance and drum and bass. | | | Featuring instruments such as harmonium, tabla, dholak, saringda and rabab, beats and lines are often repeated, with subtle variations to bring out the deeper truths to the music and lyrics, which are poems and observations of Sufi philosophers such as the immortal poet-sage Rumi. |
