The celebrated Sufi music group led by Rizwan and Muazzam
Rizwan-Muazzam Qawwali, the celebrated Sufi music group led by Rizwan and Muazzam, will be embarking on a tour across the USA and Canada. The tour is set to bring their powerful and hypnotic performances to North American audiences, continuing their tradition of Sufi devotional music that transcends cultural and linguistic barriers.
Rizwan and Muazzam, direct descendants of a 500-year-old lineage of Qawwali music, have carried forward the legacy of their father and uncle, bringing the Sufi devotional tradition to global audiences. Their performances are characterized by intense, passionate singing and a deep connection to the spiritual and poetic roots of Sufism.
Qawwali music, which often features themes of divine love and mystical enlightenment, is performed with a unique blend of Farsi (Persian), Punjabi, and Urdu lyrics. The group’s live performances are known for their hypnotic and transcendent quality, often involving the audience in a shared spiritual journey.
The internationally acclaimed Rizwan-Muazzam Qawwali made a triumphant return to the UK for their first tour since 2017. Kicking off in Cardiff on March 16, they performed to full houses across the country, culminating in a sold-out show at the Barbican in London.
