About Riyaaz Qawwali
The art of qawwali, as with most of the great
Asian musical and literary traditions, is
transmitted orally ... The vehicle of music is
used to bring one closer to the experience of the
inner truth. Riyaaz qawwal will dwell on certain
words to give them a wider context creating great
depth in the apparently simple language ... He
will often repeat a phrase or sentence indicating
both the obvious and hidden content by
emphasizing or ruminating upon particular words
and syllables, taking the audience into the
discovery of hitherto obscure meanings. Thus,
mundane objects are embued with deeper meaning
a spinning wheel becomes the wheel of life.
Qawwali is a venerable yet refreshing musical
tradition that dates back to the late 13th
century. The word qaul refers to an "utterance
(of the prophet)" and the first Qawwals (qawwali
artists) repeated these qauls by making them the
subject matter of their qawwalis.

Riyaaz Qawwalis mission is to expose qawwali to
new audiences, while still paying homage to
traditional qawwali that has been in existence
for 700 years. The ensemble wants to expand the
reach of the genre to new stages and people of
other faiths and traditions. The founding members
of Riyaaz Qawwali chose the qawwali genre of
music because it houses unique musical elements
in its repertoire that are not found in any other
form of South Asian music.
