Very few talents of India are recognised and valued abroad. Sawar Hussain has not only represented India with his music at South Korea and USA but was also invited by the UNESCO to perform at Paris and New York. From performing solo in India as well as abroad to accompanying great artists like Ustad Rashid Khan and many others, Sarwar’s list of achievements cannot be recorded in a single page. Born on October 5,1981 at Gohad district near Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, Sawar lives in Kolkata and is currently a musician at ITC Sangeet Research Academy. His grandfather was a Sarangi exponent and had learnt Sarangi from a famous Sarangi exponent Ustad Bade Ghulam Sabir Khan Ambala wale. Genetically learning Sarangi from his grandfather at a early age of 9, he carried his grandfather’s approach of music forward with ease. He is the only Saragi exponent of this generation who plays the difficult and confusing “tappa” style with confidence. Sarwar’s inevitable aptitude is also appreciated by All India Radio and Doordarshan. He has received many awards for his delightful and enlightening skills.
