Shafaatullah Khan

In the rich history of Indian classical music, Shafaatullah Khan is a shining star. Debuting at the Kings Lynn festival in England at the age of eleven before the Queen Mother, he is the first known artist of India to have performed in a single recital on the Sitar, Surbahar, and Tabla, at the most prestigious concert halls, music festivals and universities all around the world.

Shafaatullah’s creativity has challenged the paradigm in this field where an artist excels in either strings or percussion. This perspective enables him to approach music rhythmically and rhythm musically. This multidimensional musical repertoire distinguishes him in his illustrious ancestry.
