Collection: Ghazal

Ghazal is a poetic and musical form that originated in Arabic literature and has since become a beloved genre across South Asia and the Middle East. This emotive style of music is characterized by its romantic and melancholic themes, often exploring love, loss, and spiritual longing. The genre encompasses various regional styles, including the ornate and classical Afghan Traditional ghazals, which blend Persian influences with local Afghan musical traditions. Another notable sub-genre is the Lata style, named after the legendary Indian singer Lata Mangeshkar, which incorporates a more modern, cinematic approach to ghazal performance. Ghazal compositions typically feature a vocalist accompanied by instruments such as the harmonium, tabla, and sitar, creating a rich tapestry of sound that complements the lyrical depth of the poetry.
