Rahat Fateh Ali Khan will return to perform in Dubai on Friday, December 7.
One of the world's most loved South Asian music artists, Ustad Rahat Fateh Ali Khan will perform at the Dubai World Trade Centre, as the final date in his current world tour titled 'Just Qawali'. The tour has seen another series of sold out shows around the world including multiple dates in the US and UK.
On announcing his Dubai date, Khan said: "I am looking forward to coming back to Dubai for another great show... I have never performed Qawali in its purest form before in Dubai and I can't wait to see you all again at Dubai World Trade Centre."
Ustad Rahat Fateh Ali Khan will bring his inimitable style to the UAE in another breathtaking live show which brings to life some of the most famous Qawali songs. He adds: "I am basically a qawwal; the poetry of the sufis runs in my blood. Qawali is at the heart of our family traditions and my ancestors have worked hard to develop this genre of music and introduce it to the world. The world of music has not seen a qawwal parallel to Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. He glorified the art of qawwali and took it to international audiences. He won many awards and accolades for his performances. Qawali and I are inseparable. Qawali gives me the unique edge in all genres of music that I do."
