 player, transcending musical barriers with his provocative expression and 
 spellbinding technical mastery. Nishat stands at the threshold of the 
 future of sitar and Indian music with his uniquely invigorating and 
 contemporary approach. He is the son and disciple of Ustad Imrat Khan, the 
 nephew of the late Ustad Vilayat Khan and a member of one of the oldest and 
 most prestigious musical families and schools in India – the Imdadkani 
 Ganara of Etawah. Nishat draws on his own musical heritage that is the

 worked with other major performers and composers such as John McLaughlin, 
 Philip Glass, Paco Peña and Evelyn Glennie among many others.\n \nNitin
