The Saami Brothers: Rauf Saami, Urooj Saami, Ahmed Saami, and Azeem Saami.

Hailing from Karachi, Pakistan, the Saami family are the living custodians of one of the world’s oldest and most powerful musical legacies. A Sufi dynasty with an unbroken lineage spanning nearly 800 years, the family– led by Ustad Naseeruddin Saami– are master practitioners of two deeply spiritual and technically demanding traditions: Khayal and Qawwali.
