7:00 pm
Ashraf Sharif Khan is the third son of the Asian
sitar master Ustad Muhammad Sharif Khan Poonchwala. An
acknowledged prodigy since the age of eleven, he inherits a musical tradition
handed down from father to son, from ustad to talib, over hundreds of years --
since the founding of the "saini gharana" school in the time of the
Moghul Emperors of South Asia.
Ashraf's music combines an astounding technical proficiency with an
accomplished artist's striving for perfection in musical expression. The
melodic beauty of his style, accentuated by his dynamic rhythmic development
and virtuoso technique provide an unforgettable musical experience for longtime
aficionados of South Asian music and for newcomers alike. His music transcends
regional boundaries, and is accessible to all. It is universal in scope. (http://www.suficonference.org/)
