ABOUT THE PERFORMANCE
Sami Yusuf’s new arrangement of the popular Sufi qawwali song ‘Ya Hayyu Ya Qayyum’ is an exceptional work of art. A mystical celebration of the source of life, the piece opens in a meditative mood with intensely captivating and intimate vocal solos by Pooja Gaitonde, Tayyar Bayramov and Nabyla Maan and a sitar solo by the renowned Asad Khan. Fluidly transitioning to the exuberant rhythms and vocals of the outstanding group of qawwali musicians joining him, Sami Yusuf leads a passionate call and response of the centuries-old devotional lyrics.
This new arrangement of ‘Ya Hayyu Ya Qayyum’ was recorded live over two nights at Sami Yusuf’s highly acclaimed ‘Beyond the Stars’ concert at the Dubai EXPO.

Even though I don't understand the language, I can understand the language the music speaks to me. In fact, although the concept of traditionalism and culture covers a very, very wide spectrum, Sami Yusuf, with your knowledge and high command on this subject. You are the leading role model who managed to impose all the musical diversity in the world on each other. Congratulations Sami Yusuf 🙏💎

[@MaximusViolet]

I died and became a flower, I shed a petal and a pollen, The petal withered and faded into the sun, The pollen met trials, Almost being crushed Almost Being swallowed Finding uncertain calm in the darkness of night Finally to meet its beloved, To live on. I never died, I never die, I live on as the actions of my youth The advice of my old age And as the sweat that brought spring. You asked what this music did to me. This.

[@bassantarishasy]

[@user-ty3cw7yv2s]

Очень красивое пение! Но вот идёт воспевание Аллаха а женщины с непокрытой головой на всеобщем обозрении и к тому же с распущенным волосом. Это просто певцы и они не мусульмане? Или это не харам ходить с распущенным волосом и открыто?

Qawwali songs are when two group of people sing and the listeners judge who was better. Jugalbandi is when two groups of people play instruments and the listeners judge who is better. Jugalbandi is always instrumental mostly classical Indian or carnatic music.😊
