Ustad Mubarak Ali Khan Mubarak Ali Khan is a leading exponent of classical music in Pakistan and belongs to a traditional family of vocalists representing the Shamchaurasi Gharana. He was groomed in classical music by his uncle Ustad Ghazanfar Khan alias Rajjhu Khan. It was during this apprenticeship that Mubarak Ali became influenced by the style of Ustad Amir Khan of Indore. His style ably blends the two traditions of Shamchaurasi Gharana with that of Ustad Amir Khan. In the vilambit part of his performance, his elaboration and development of the raag displays the grandeur of the style of Ustad Amir Khan whilst in the drut tempo, his sargam and taan patterns have the swiftness  of Shamchaurasi Gharana. Ustad Mubarak Ali frequently broadcasts his music on radio and television and is a regular feature on the classical music concert scene.
