Nishat Khan is a timeless musician whose playing has always incorporated otherworldly, ancient overtones, whether he is playing Indian Classical music or jamming with jazz legends, flamenco stars or classical orchestras. He displays an uncanny ability to seemingly create a physical presence for individual notes, which he watches grow out of his instrument, tosses to his partner, the audience, or even out to infinity. In his Meeting of Angels project he blends the free modal structures of his ragas with ancient Gregorian chants, performed by the well-known Ensemble Gilles Binchois.

Khan expresses the spiritual side of his mesmerising character in music devoid of speeding tablas and marimbas, but full off rapt beauty and purity. Khan's own gayaki style of sitar playing, strongly influenced by a Hindustani vocal style, blends beautifully with the free rhythms and transcending harmonies of Gregorian psalms and prayers. This musical encounter between two related ancient traditions of sacred music has been released on Amiata Records internationally.

Meeting of Angels has successfully toured Europe, from the Basilica Aroeceli (Rome), San Sigismondo (Milan), Chiesa Santa Chiara (Naples), San Giuseppe (Florence), the Basicilica Capelle Eglise (Brussels), to the Queen Elizabeth Hall in London. In the USA Khan played three sold-out concerts at the Kamuila Theatre in Hawaii and subsequently a series of University Master concerts in Amherst Massachusetts, Stanford, and University of California at Irvine.

"Expressive richness and beauty…ethereal…A Benedictum Domino setting that could have called even the unfaithful to prayer." -The London Independent
