BROOKLYN QAWWALI PARTY
Brooklyn Qawwali Party, led by drummer
Brook Martinez, pays tribute to one of the world’s great vocalists, the legendary
Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, reworking his thunderous songs for an eclectic, ten-piece orchestra comprised of groundbreaking jazz musicians. Funky, smart, and loving, BQP captures the joyful spirit of this Pakistani folk music in a unique instrumental blend of jazz and Qawwali. With five horns, guitar, bass, harmonium, and three percussionists, this band's buoyant rhythm will be sure to get you on your feet and clapping.
After what a seven year hiatus the group is back and stronger than ever..
