Sangeet Kaar: Musicians' Profiles

Mr Ayub Aulia, is a noted professional writer of distinction. His scripts and

other written words have the distinct and refined taste of Delhi in addition to

the flavours of the Punjab. ZIA MOHYEDDIN

The book will take a foremost place amongst the existing literature on

musicians from Indo-Pak. It is a highly specialised field and Mr Ayub Aulia is,

without doubt, a specialist. PANDIT RAVI SHANKAR

I used to listen, fascinated, as my father (Ustad Allah Rakha) and he swapped

stories and anecdotes of musicians of the 1930s && 40s and later musicians who

were marked for their obvious accomplishments as well as idiosyncrasies and a

certain innocence. Even though he indulged me, he never failed to remind me

of my duties to the musical tradition I inherited. Ustad Zakir Hussain

This book is both heart-touching but also an idiom for music lovers. The book

is an affectionate reflection of the favourite artists. The style of writing is

enriched with love and respect for the artists featured-ZEHRA NIGAH
