The evening will commence with brothers Ali Hashim and Kayam Hussain who have both been trained in the ‘Punjab Gharana’ of Tabla style and technique performing a tabla solo.

This will be followed by a classical recital involving another two very exciting young British Asian talents. One is Junaid Ali, an established young musician in the British Asian music scene who is also trained in the ‘Pubjab Gharana’ school. From a very tender age he has immersed himself in his training and continued learning. Along with Junaid will be Shayaan Saqib, who like the others has devoted himself for many years to his training and learning of the ‘Sarod’; a classical instrument dating to the 19th century in the sub continent. A highly technical instrument resulting in not many players of it, let alone one from East London!

Do come and support these young and highly skilled musicians as they embark on their stage performance journey.
