While popularly known as the father of qawwali, Khusro is also said to have invented khyal.Р”В«oth Sadarang and Khusro lived at least 500 years apart, which makes one wonder why such historical inconsistencies concerning North Indian music and khyal survive till today. Many of its members claim to have moved to Karachi at the time of Partition, hence its succession continues to be disputed till today.Р”Р„t the same time, Ustad Saami also belongs to the lineage of qawwal bachay, who trace their hereditary musical knowledge to the primary disciple of Amir Khusro, Mian Samat Bin Ibrahim. He belongs to the contentious Delhi gharana of North Indian classical music that focuses on khyal. Ustad Saami, a veteran of khyal, is the direct descendant of Tanrus Khan, the legendary court musician of the last Mughal emperor, Bahadur Shah Zafar. As a result, many have credited Sadarang as the founder of khyal. In particular, it was a chief court musician, Naimat Khan, also called Sadarang, who was known to have popularised khyal during the Mughal rule of Muhammad Shah in the 17th century. Khyal rose to much prominence during the later Mughal period and has since been a cornerstone of so-called pure classical music alongside dhrupad, as opposed to lighter semi-classical forms such as thumri, ghazal and qawwali.

Given the bleak affairs of state patronage for the performing arts in Pakistan, it is not surprising that little attention is paid to this musical tradition. In the midst of this incredible lineup was the venerable Ustad Naseeruddin Saami from Pakistan, among the few authentic exponents of the khyal in the subcontinent.Р”Р‡or the uninitiated, khyal is one of the foundational vocal genres of North Indian classical music.
