Ustad Kamal Sabri Khan (Índia)
Kamal Sabri (Índia, 1976) é filho de uma das maiores lendas da música clássica indiana: Ustad Sabri Khan (na foto, à esquerda), que tocou com Ravi Shankar, Yehudi Menuhin e os Beatles. Kamal Sabri seguiu a tradição da família, tornando-se na nova geração na referência maior do sarangi, instrumento comummente citado como o de maior dificuldade na tradição indiana. É um dos quatro nomes a figurar nas compilações The Best of Sarangi (Vol1 e Vol2), da Living Media India, juntamente com Sultan Khan (1905), Sabri Khan (1927), e Ram Narayan (1927).
Apresentou-se em concertos com alguns dos mais importantes nomes da música clássica indiana, como Ustad Fateh Ali Khan e Zakir Hussain, e com músicos de jazz e música improvisada, como Jan Garbarek, Dan Weiss e Raoul Bjorkenheim.
Em 2001 colaborou com o grupo Massive Attack, na gravação de uma música encomendada para o filme Matrix Reloaded.
Vencedor de múltiplos prémios nacionais, conferidos pelo Indo-Sr Lankan Cultural Council, entre os quais o The Young Maestro Award (1999) e o The Best Instrumentalist (2000), e prémios internacionais, como o Nashville Music Award (Melhor Músico Internacional 2016).
Compôs para cinema, em filmes de Hollywood (como o The Big Question, com Mel Gibson e Monica Bellucci) e da Bollywood (como Khamosh Pani).
Actuou em grandes salas e em festivais de todo o mundo, e em cerimónias como a do Nobel na presença do Rei da Noruega, e noutras celebrações na presença do Presidente da China e de Presidentes da Índia.
Apresenta-se pela primeira vez em Portugal a solo, num concerto exclusivo.
"
Kamal Sabri, probably the best sarangi (Indian violin) player in the world, plays some heartbreaking tunes." Variety, USA
"On his way to the Top" National Herald, India
"Clad in jeans and a cool tee, talking about his love for cricket and travelling, this sarangi player, son of Ustad Sabri Khan, the seventh in the generation of a well-known clan of musicians, is quite unlike an exponent of classical Indian music." Times of India
"Youthful maestro" Trinidad Guardian, Trinidad
Stunning magical performance"- Helsingin Sanomat, Finland
"Fingers, dancing complex patterns on Sarangi strings" Birmingham Post, UK
"While father Sabri Khan perfected the khat khatka style to suit his vocalists, and the gayaki ang for solo renditions, his son Kamal has radicalised the instrument itself by tuning a guitar string in place of the traditional gut string. "The Hindu
"Kamal was impressive. His playing managed to give goosebumps like the Thoughts and Beats CD of Sultan Khan and Zakir Hussain. Kamal is an interesting subject for scrutiny. He's young, 25 years old to be exact, he comes from the Sainia Gharana of music and is seventh in line of a family tree that shows sarangi players from top to bottom. He has a rather modern outlook because of his age, but at the same time tradition is very close to his heart. He learnt under the tutelage of his father, Ustad Sabri Khan, who is a progressive sarangi player and has won the Padmashree award in India. Homegrown, but open to ideas, Ustad Sabri Khan has played with Pandit Ravi Shankar and Yehudi Menuhin from the classical lot and with The Beatles" The News, Índia
