Ustad Bakhsi Salamat Qawwal The evolution of the qawwali is a momentous one initially written in Persian. It can trace its origins in Indiaduring the advent of the Muslim rule during the 12th century. Hazrat Amir Khusrau (1253-1324), the eminent poet, scholar, statesman and musicologist is credited with many masterpieces of Persian, Hindi and Urdu poetry and can be termed as a major propagator of the Qawwali, during the course of time, Qawwali started to be expressed through melody and Qawwali musicians started to use them as part of their repertoire. Ustad Moula Bakhsh, Ustad Rorhay Ali Khan, Ustad Fateh Ali Khan, Ustad Din Muhammad din Dina, Ustad Karam Din Khan and Ustad Bakhshi Salamat were the early pioneers who built a reputation in the field and set the initial groundwork of Qawwali. Later, Qawwals of this caliber established themselves as major exponents of Qawwali Gayaki. However, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and BJS, Bakhshi Javed Salamat have added a further dimension to this art form.Ustad Bakhshi Salamat Qawwal was one of the pioneering Qawwali Gayaki by capturing the mood of the Qawwali through their compositions. He was a master composer and uses raags which best suit the Qawwali’s appeal regardless of whether the raag is khayal or thumri orientated. Most of their compositions are based around the correct Qawwali structure of a raag and keep the vaadi and samvaadi of the raag in strict consideration. Ustad Salamat Ali Khan's popularity resulted in his becoming one of the most popular Qawwals of the Pakistani Qawwali industry from the early 1950s to the late 1980s. Many of his Radio and TV channels items have become classics.
