Instrument: Sitar

Farhan Khan comes from a line of great musicians of the Mewat Gharana. Under the tutelage of his father, the late maestro, Ustad Rais Khan, Farhan underwent rigorous training of both the sitar and the surbahar, or bass sitar, starting when he was barely three.He gave his first public performance accompanying his father at the Nazrul Manch in Kolkata on January 9th, 1991 at the tender age of 9.The sophistication and delicacy in Farhan Khan’s playing truly represents the gayaki-ang style of his gharana.
