Sufi music concert on February 25

Arifana Kalam-Sufi poetry for the soul will mesmerise the classical music lovers here on February 25 with message of love, tolerance and harmony composed in lyrical forms set to the tunes of local folk music of the Indus Valley. The Institute for Preservation of Art and Culture (IPAC) and Kuch Khaas, Center for Arts, Culture and Dialogue are jointly organising the evening of soulful Sufi music.
During the middle ages of Islam many contemplating and religious minded persons used to be attracted to the towns and cities of the Indus valley for their reputation for peaceful life and respect for the learned, thus setting the stage for the emergence of a rich tradition of Sufi poetry that has served to unify and synthesise the diverse cultural heritage of the people and their folk wisdom, said organisers from IPAC. Javed Tufail Niazi (Pride of Performance) accompanied by Ustad Muhammad Ajmal on Tabla will give the performance to celebrate the rare beauty of the Sufi poetry.
