While in Lahore, Pakistan, the Society interviewed the last living, singing member of the original Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Party. The great, legendary qawwal vocalist, Atta Fareed Bagh.
The urge to meet him in person and thank him for his work is real. To those fans living in Pakistan, you'll should do it while you can. This is heritage.
Respect to Bagh Saheb. A life well lived. He is full of respect to his forefathers, teachers and Sufi Saints. A big thanks to Sargam society for this rare interview.🙏🙏👍
The founding members of the Sargam Society of America also grew up in the US in the 90's on a heavy diet of NFAK and Party. Thank you for appreciating the effort!
کوئی شک نہیں کہ استاد نصرت خاں صاحب کی ہر کمپوزیشن۔۔۔استاد عطا فرید کے جادوئی سرگم اور الاپوں کے بغیر بلکل ادھوری اور پھیکی لگتی۔۔استاد کے الاپ سامعین پر اک عجیب سحر طاری کر دیتے تھے۔۔۔لیجنڈری گائیک۔۔۔۔❤
I cried so much watching this interview , I’m heading to visit the amazing and beautiful country of Pakistan 🇵🇰 next year and I pray I would get the honor to meet this living legend May Allah continue to Bless him
An absolute legend. Atta Fareed sahab is synonymous with the best part of Nusrat Era 🙏 Atta Fareed sahab was the only one who actually was in the same class as NFK despite his unique style
Atta Fareed Bagh saheb is a living legend. He has performed brilliantly so many times with Ustaad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan saheb, Ustaad Farooq saheb, Ustaad Dildar saheb. In their prime, they were the best in the world and today they are in our memories, thoughts, ears, minds all the time.
سبحان اللہ۔ ظہیر صاحب آپ نے ہم تشنگانِ فن موسیقی پر بڑا احسان کیا ہے استاد بھاگ خاں صاحب کا اتنا تفصیلی انٹرویو لے کر۔ بہت اہم باتیں تو ہمیں معلوم نہ تھیں ، جنکا جاننا از حد ناگزیر تھا وہ ہمیں آپکی معرفت معلوم ہوئیں۔بھاگ صاحب بلاشبہ بڑے انسان ہیں فن اور شخصیت ہر دو حوالوں سے۔ آپ کے فرزند استاد کالے خاں بھاگ قوال کے اندر وہ تمام صفات موجود ہیں جو ایک بڑے قوال کے اندر ہونی چاہئیں۔ دعاۓ صحت و سلامتی
Those were the days when these legend's used to perform in London in 80s and 90s with legend of legend nusrat fathe and group never to be forgotten watched them live so many times
We tried to interview him since 2018! He is fully dedicated to the Baba Farid shrine in PakPattan and rarely travels. We literally met him on our final day in Pakistan. Our film crew had disbanded and returned to Islamabad. Hence this entire interview was shot with a single GoPro camera! If we return to Pakistan, we will do another interview of Ustad Atta Fareed Bhag with better equipment.
Al Hamdulillahi MashaAllah.. I am very happy to learn that a member of the nusrat team is alive...he plays the harmonium very well with a nice voice.. he deserves great honours... We pray to Allah that he may live long and healthy.... Thank you for sharing... From Algeria...
Mujhe achche se yaad hai mujhe inka naam nahi maloom tha lekin mei ustad Nusrat Ali saab ki Qawwali sirf inke bol sunne ke liye suna karta tha kya andaaz or khubsurati se taaqatwar bol banakar diya karte they mujhe pasand hi ye they puri team mei inka style dil ko chuta tha MashaAllah abhi aap hayaat hai bohot Khushi Hui Allah aapko khush rakhe love from India
With due respect to all, it can never be denied that this person was exceptional and unique in his voice culture and ceaseless improvisations. The molody he could master instantly was beyond all logical estimations... Countless pranam & salute to Ustad Atta Fareed Sahab❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Ustad atta fareed is a legend , his alaaps and his style of singing was fabulous even at this age he has melody in his voice. I wish people like this had more media coverage and I wish that someone releases more of his recordings that he performed solo, I love his voice
Thank you very much for adding the translation, because you have removed the language barrier and given us the opportunity to get to know those who had the honor of accompanying the great artist (رحمه الله) and to hear more about what he was like as a human being.

Bhut accha lga ye interview sunke .... Kafi din se intzar tha ki aata fareed shab ka interview dekhe khan shab k baare m 2,4 baate sune Thanks ....🙏🙏🙏🙏
Aaj mujhey Ustad Atta Fareed key sahibzaday Kalay Khan Bhag say call par baat hui. Meray chota Bahie Dr. Rizwan Khan bhi meri trah Qawaali key shaiq hein or un ki ma'rfat baat ho gaie. Kal din main Ustad Sahib say baat ho gi to bachpan ki haseen yadain taza ho jain gi.
Thank you so much for posting this interview. Indeed. Following NFAK sahab's early performances and the meteoric rise of his fame in the world of qawalis, one could never ever fail to notice the immensely monumental contribution of Atta Fareed sahab's vocal and instrumental prowess that stamped the supreme standard of performance offered by the team. It was so disheartening to find him missing from the team all of a sudden. I was always intrigued to know if this was due to some internal politics within the team (also that the elder brother of NFAK's team had left the group around that time). Its thus, very comforting, to be able to listen to the parts of this story from the great performer Janab Fareed himself. Once again, thanks my friend ! 🙏
