Raag Bihag - Akbar Ali

[@TheFlutism]

Probably one of the few finest singers.. no gimmicks.. in half of the video didn't even go above pancham..soojhne wali baat hai.. gazab surilapan.. I have become a fan of his.

[@MK-yg7zf]

Exactly.

[@AllyAdnan]

Very good. Akbar Ali is, hands down, the most promising young classical vocalist of Pakistan.

[@arifkhan100]

Ally Adnan Akbar Ali also has the right temperament of patience and hard work that is so essential to khayal.

[@uos64]

Ally Adnan I have seen your Akbar Ali videos... I love Akbar Ali. But many say that this guy is the last of the breed ? Is that true ? Do we have any new kids picking up Indian classical singing? Also is this guy really Javed Bashir s brother ?

[@aniltatre1181]

Good

[@arifkhan100]

@@uos64 Yes he is Javed's younger brother

[@arifkhan100]

Akbar Ali has an amazing voice and has worked hard for many years to get here. He is our rising star in the world of classical. kaisa achha thehrao. vaah vaah

[@1mehra]

Love Akbar ali . God bless this star.

[@autobotftwww]

Getting better and better. Serious attitude, no gimmicks, humility, great room to grow. Mashallah, mujhe chand mamooli aitaraz thay in ki gayaki say bhav kay lihaaz say ab woh bhi chalay gaye hain.

[@TheDreamJourney]

It's rewarding to read your comment. thank you!

[@klacsanzky77]

Such beauty in the voice, reminds me of Amir Khan with the deep introspection in the music and peaceful pace. I am from United States and not from Indian or Pakistani origin, but this music is universally appealing. Looking forward to see Akbar Ali in USA for performances.

[@TheDreamJourney]

klacsanzky77 thank you for your comment

[@shomowroy]

The last of the creative singers.

[@nsg5773]

Akbar Ali shb....YOU ARE AMAZING. What a DISCOVERY! سبحان اللہ Heartfelt thanks for this endeavour...team Dream Journey!

Great Sir Akbar Ali Mann say gaya Allah Pak khush rakhay

[@rahularora9094]

Javed Sahab aur Akbar Sahab dono hi sacche insaan Hain...Mera khayal hai. Javed Sahab ne Mekaal Hasan ke Saath Jo album ki thi wo kaafi hadd tak Nusrat Sahab aur Peter Gabriel ki night song Ka aks thi...Nusrat Sahab qawwali ko nayi nasl ke liye naye saanche mein dhaal rahe they aur sampooran ne Sufi kalaam aur Soch ko fusion ke zariye mashoor Kia. Akbar Sahab Ka andaaz mukhtalif ho Raha hai aur ye duniya ke liye Khushi ki baat hai...ab ek Nahin do andaaz zinda rahenge...behtareen video...khuda kare Aapke video Puri duniya dekhe aur ye muhim barkarrar rahe...shukriya

[@aaryantiwarimusic]

Wah Akbar Ali! ❤

[@rahuldevnathdevnath]

what a beautiful rendition !!! brilliant singing !!! bahut mazaa aya unhe sun ke . many many thanks to dream journey.i didn't know so much hindustani classical music is cultivated in pakistan !!! i didn't know you brothers, i am sorry for that.

[@kazimizan1852]

Vai Akbar Ali upke jo voice lagtahe ostad Amanat Ali ka tara khup sorot Amazing ham upko doa kortehe up Awor boro bonjay ham upse kaesy molakat hoga from Bangladesh all the beat thanks

[@mohsin805]

It's has been so long since I last saw any of Akbar Ali's video on social media. He truly is talented and I love the time and patience with which he explores each raag ... Thank You (The Dream Journey).

[@TheDreamJourney]

thank you

[@mohsin805]

"A Star is Born" is a very detailed article written by Ally Adnan in The Friday times on Akbar Ali. I hope you guys read and enjoy.

[@arifkhan100]

vaah sahih keha. yehi hai thehrao jo ke kuchh tajurbe se paida hota hai aur kuchh mood aur mahaul se

[@adamtrivedi1434]

I have no words to describe the sweetness of this bandish. Akbar Ali sahab is surely doing justice to the raag and I am sure that his Ustad Amirkhan sahab will be feeling proud of him. I'd also like to appreciate the companion artists as they have given very good support on Tabla and Sarangi. I dont know why but, in starting Akbar Ali sahab introduced the Tauseef Abbas sahab but not introduced the Sarangi Player. There is nothing to criticize but I personally felt that Sarangi player was also no less and he should be also equally appreciated. I am also thankful to Team DJ for there tireless efforts in preserving the musical tradition. My Best wishes for entire Team of DJ as well as all the Artist of this recording.

[@TheNit50]

very inspiring Akbar Ali Saheb, the calmness in your personality shows the amount of hard work and time you have been dedicatedly putting into music. you are an inspiration for young generation sir, and your music touches the soul.

[@NicholasKlacsanzkyICM]

Amazing sur, laya, and variations. Put a smile on my face several times.

[@ayazansari2414]

wah .... is bikhry ehsas ko kesy khoobsorti sy peish kiya hai. mehv ho gaye hum to. khush raho

[@SannanMahboob]

very melodious and amazingly expressed raag bihag

[@mothsmoke]

Absolutely beautiful. Having listened to the original bandish in Raag Bihag by the great Ustad Amir Khan countless times, this rendition by Akber Ali is haunting. Is there anyone else today who has the panache to pull off such a difficult bandish so flawlessly with the ease, grace, and poise of Akber Ali? I doubt it. I will be seeing him perform live tonight at NAPA in Karachi. So delighted and honoured to have an opportunity to see this brilliant young man perform. We are lucky to be alive in his times.

[@sureshkv8135]

You said it better than I could ever do...Akbar Ali is truly the hidden gem and hope he sings for another 50 years

[@AmbikaSukla]

Please try to add a recital of Raag Megh if possible. I think it will be a treat coming from Akbar Ali.

[@ganeshchandraroy2502]

I think this artist will fill the vacant place of late ustad Salamat ali khan .....

[@ahmedzafar4406]

You must be kidding me Lol. I like him a lot myself but he doesn't come close to Tansen Salamat ali khan. And he needs to stop copying ustad Amir khan's style, Ali is very talented I am sure he's one of the finest in Pakistan amongst new generation.

[@manjukesh1]

He undoubtedly has the potential. I love this guy since I first saw him on Junoon. Have been a fan of him. Not just a vocalist par excellence, an extremely humble man. There’s nothing wrong in following Ustad Amir Khna Sagan’s style of it makes him learn. And obviously, who would deny that you can’t learn from him.

[@1989amrish]

Sir please think twice before making such comparisons... No disrespect for very young, talented and melodious Akbar Ali but yes...Tansen Salamat Ali Khan sahab will always be class apart.

[@bnuengineer]

Very good performance. It is heartening to note that some young rising stars are keeping the classical tradition alive, unlike many who have since crossed over to pop abandoning their forefather's legacy (although I do not blame them as classical genre has few takers). Sincere Thanks are due to The Dream Journey for their painstaking efforts and expense in presenting & preserving good music for posterity and for pleasure of those, like me, who tremendously enjoy listening to it. THANKS once more.

[@TheDreamJourney]

While Akbar Ali is originally from a gharana of Qawwals, he has learnt classical Khayal from Ustad Mubarak Ali Khan who lives in Lahore and is inspired by the late Ustad Amir Khan, Indore Gharana.

[@khawaish7218]

Akbar Ali has very sweet classical voice, god give you long life sir. a big fan from India 🇮🇳

Indebted to dream journey team for such blissful uploads... This generous effort of you guys is indeed very special.. If at all, music is religion then you guys are preparing Bible, Gita & Quran of music. Adding at least a thousand years of life to this beautiful art of Indian classical.

[@dsiddhu68]

Kya baat hai, Akbar Ali. Seems like you are starting to reflect Javed Bashir Bhai’s style, your voices are starting to merge and almost sound alike. Awesome.

[@trivikramsinghjandaive8280]

Young voice with such accomplishment is even more.... .

[@hemantghayal7709]

Top class. Full of Bhava.

[@TheFlutism]

Ghazab surilapan ♥️ can't thank enough for this upload. Finally someone sings the raag in its finest form..

You are doing god's work please put the whole film out

[@rahulmenon652]

Really aesthetically edited , all of these films, especially the fareed Ayaz one's, it's like I'm not the only one feeling it, sometimes you feel like that, that you're mad especially in this practical world we live in , but then you see that even you are conscious of it. It's beautiful really. Really thank you so much from the bottom of my heart ,if you need any help please tell me , I'm a poor filmmaker from india

[@ehsanasghar5676]

[@campers4440]

Thank you so much for putting these songs on youtube. They have helped me tremendously in my spiritual journey. These songs transcend religion. Would it be possible to put English subtitles on all the songs. It is too late for me to learn a new language. I really appreciate your kind consideration.

[@arunavio]

Perhaps you may have already understood this one. Kaise ( How ) Sukh ( here it means happiness, other meaning is to be contend) Soway ( how to sow the seed ) . So basically the English translation would be “ how to sow the seeds that bear happiness or contentment in one’s life “.

[@MuhammadHaider_110]

Amazing work may Allah give you more success in your life

[@trivikramsinghjandaive8280]

With what accomplished restraint the tabla player played during aalaap.

[@rachitupadhyay]

Forgive my knowledge if I m wrong here, just wanted to confirm, since this is bihag and teevra madhyam should be very limited otherwise it will sound like Maru bihag, although akbar bhai sang brilliantly but for sake of understanding wanting to know actual nature of bihag raag.. anyone pls..

[@MohammedAlHaydarii]

Very accurate voice nice good 👌
