"
Andaleeb Wasif
was born in a well-known family of Hyderabad, India in 1928. A self-taught singer and harmonium player, he gained recognition early in life, performing for the Nizam (ruler) of Hyderabad when he was only six years old. On this recording Wasif performs six ghazals, a poetic form of couplets focusing on love and longing with mystical and spiritual elements. The lyrics to the ghazals featured on the recording are written by some of the best-known Urdu poets of the 20th century including
Faiz Ahmad Faiz
. Never commercially released, the songs have been sourced from private concerts, home recorded cassettes and radio shows. Andaleeb's renditions are enigmatic, filled with pathos, timeless and ethereal."
