Hear history come alive through the sarod and tabla with Alam Khan and Salar Nader — a duo redefining tradition while honouring centuries of musical heritage. Drawing from the profound teachings of their legendary gurus, Ustad Ali Akbar Khan and Ustad Zakir Hussain, they weave a mesmerizing tapestry of melody and rhythm that resonates across cultures and generations.
Let their captivating rhythms carry you through intricate tabla patterns and the soul-stirring tones of the sarod in a celebration of lineage, mastery, and the enduring power of music to connect us all. Don’t miss an evening where ancient ragas from the courts of Emperor Akbar come alive through contemporary interpretations, and where virtuosity meets heartfelt expression.
The Aga Khan Museum is proud to partner with the Raag-Mala Music Society of Toronto to bring the finest musicians performing Raag Sangeet (North Indian Classical music) to Toronto audiences.
Throughout their 2026 concert season, Raag-Mala Toronto will present five carefully selected vocalists and instrumentalists who are masters of their craft. Paying homage to tradition while carrying on this ancient art form, Raag-Mala Toronto presents a masterclass in musical complexity through a series of raags — improvisations based on musical scales that serve as the lifeblood of Indian classical music and have no traditional Western equivalent.
