I wish I could hold a concert.... It is unfair that the Shehnai is not played at concerts. Why should not the Shehnai be played at the concerts?... Then let me do it now. Let me break tradition.... May Lord Balaji help me. Bismillah Khan
He was the undisputed jewel in the crown of Indian music; one who will not be born in the next few centuries. He gave a new meaning to shehnai. Bismillah Khan
