Khurja Gharana

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Khurja Gharana is a musical apprenticeship tribe of Hindustani classical music.[1] Known for being Azmat Hussain Khan's and Jitendra Abhisheki's musical lineage,[2] the gharana emerged from a family of Nauharbani musicians and gained recognition during the life of Altaf Hussain Khan[3] who was born at Khurja.[4]

With its own distinct aesthetics, stylings, practices, and repertoire, the gharana melded with Jaipur-Atrauli, Agra, Qawwal Bacchon, Atrauli, and Hapur musical traditions.[5][6][7]
