Supported by the family of Drs. Hari & Seema Johri, Kabir Centre is proud to bring to Canada the sitar virtuoso Shujaat Husain Khan who will strum the sitar and sing folk and sufi songs.

In his country Shujaat is considered a national treasure… a musical legend….Shujaat Husain Khan is one of the greatest North Indian classical musicians of his generation. He belongs to the Imdad Khan gharana of the sitar and his style of playing sitar, known as the gayaki ang, is imitative of the subtleties of the human voice. ​

Shujaat Khan's musical pedigree extends seven generations. He is the son and disciple of the great sitarist Ustad Vilayat Khan. His grandfather, Ustad Inayat Khan, his great-grandfather, Ustad Imdad Khan, and his great-great-grandfather, Ustad Sahebdad Khan, were all leading artists of their respective generations.
