Ali Akbar Khan (Bengali: আলী আকবর খাঁ) (April 14, 1922 – June, 18 2009), often referred to as Khansahib or by the title Ustad (master), was a Hindustani classical musician of the Maihar gharana, known for his virtuosity in playing the sarod. Khan was instrumental in popularizing Indian classical music in the West, both as a performer (often in conjunction with Sitar maestro Ravi Shankar), and as a teacher. He established a music school in Calcutta in 1956, and the Ali Akbar College of Music in 1967, which is now located in San Rafael, California and has a branch in Basel, Switzerland. Khan also composed several classical ragas and film scores.[1] He was a Distinguished Adjunct Professor of Music[2] at the University of California, Santa Cruz. | |
