Sabri Brothers

The Sabri Brothers (Urdu: صابری برادران) were two brothers from Pakistan who, performing as a musical duo at the head of their ensemble, were legendary exponents of Sufi qawwali music. Closely connected to the Chishti Order, they are widely considered to be among the greatest Sufi qawwali singers of all time. The ensemble was fronted by Ghulam Farid Sabri and his younger brother Maqbool Ahmed Sabri. Often referred to as the Shahanshah-e-Qawwali (the Emperors of Qawwali), they also became celebrated globally as the "roving ambassadors of Pakistan". The band was initially founded by Maqbool Ahmed Sabri at the age of 11 years and was known as the Bacha Qawwal Party. His elder brother Ghulam Farid Sabri joined after insistence from their father. He became the leader of the group, and the band soon became known as the Sabri Brothers. They were the first-ever Qawwali artists to perform qawwali in the United States and other Western countries; they were also the first-ever Asian artists to perform at New York's Carnegie Hall in 1975.
