Presented by Small World Music

After an exciting performance in 2023, Fareed Ayaz & Abu Muhammad Qawaali are back bringing powerful Sufi voices & rhythms.

Known as 'the path of the heart’, Qawwali expresses the fervent devotion of the great Sufi mystics. The music begins by drawing the audience in with a meditative rhythm of chants, melodies, and percussion. Steadily, the rhythm builds, reaching ecstatic peaks that transport both musicians and listeners closer to the divine.

Ayaz and company have been bringing South Asian music to international audiences for over thirty years. The ensemble's musical roots go back 700 years in the tradition of Qawwal Bachon ka Gharana of Delhi. Lead singers, Fareed Ayaz and Abu Muhammad, accompanied by their chorus singers and percussionists, weave together devotional and secular traditions for a transcendent evening of music.
