to understand his journey, fav moments and message for the

rendezvous
#Localturnon: What is the history to your taking up Music
– how did it come into being, your journey (in brief) ?
#Ustad Tanveer Ahmed Khan: I was born into a musical
family of Dilli Gharana at Mausiqui Manzil in Darya Ganj, Delhi
and started learning classical music at the early age of 4 years
from Chand Khan. After him, I was fortunate to learn from my
grandfather Usman Khan and later from my father Naseer
Ahmed Khan. After the death of Naseer Ahmed Khan in 1986, I
continued musical training from various maestros of Dilli
Gharana such as Zafar Ahmed Khan, Zahoor Ahmed Khan and
Hilal Ahmed Khan. In 1994, I started learning from Iqbal Ahmed
Khan.
#Localturnon: So who are your favourites/ Icons/ Role
Models in the field of music?
#Ustad Tanveer Ahmed Khan: My role models include Ustad
Naseer Ahmed Khan (my father) , Ustad Amir Khan Sahab,
Bade Ghulam Ali Khan Sahab, Pandit Bhimsen Joshi.
#Localturnon: How do rejuvenate your creative insights /
get the adrenalin going?
#Ustad Tanveer Ahmed Khan: See there is no need to
rejuvenate music itself is a very creative field. Look around it
changes every minute. To get the adrenaline going, I compose
and create new patterns in Indian Classical Music.
#Localturnon: Does your Music carry a message / a theme
or a story? If so can you share more on it?
#Ustad Tanveer Ahmed Khan: Message is simple. Our Indian
classical music is rich. Its our duty to spread it as much as we
can.
#Localturnon: Of all the performances you’ve given, which
is your favourite one and why?
#Ustad Tanveer Ahmed Khan: There is one in-fact. In 1992, I
gave my first performance on stage as a classical singer at
FICCI Auditorium in front of legends like Ustad Amjad Ali Khan,
Pandit Debo Chaudhary. They appreciated my renditions.
#Localturnon: Do you have any interesting fan stories to
tell?
#Ustad Tanveer Ahmed Khan: A fan left his city to learn music
from me and he struggled a lot in Delhi but he still comes and
learns from me.
#Localturnon: Of all the music you’ve created, which is
your favourite one and why?
#Ustad Tanveer Ahmed Khan: There is nothing like favourite.
Sab favourite hai! But yes, there is one composition close to my
heart. I am working on it.
#Localturnon: Can you share about some funny incident
that happened on-stage / during performance / with you or
the other artists / stage members?
#Ustad Tanveer Ahmed Khan: I had a funny incident in
Ranchi. Actually, when I went to the venue at the gate they
asked for entry fees and when I showed them my flyers and
name. They said sorry and then laughed. We all laughed in
unison. That was really a funny moment for me.
#Localturnon: How has the musical journey been so far for
you and what are you looking forward to?
#Ustad Tanveer Ahmed Khan: Musical journey has been very
tough and pleasant. I would say I felt both simultaneously. It is
tough because this "Vidya" is not easy. You have to
dedicate yourself fully to learn it.
#Localturnon: Do you have any words of advice for
youngsters who are thinking of getting into this line ?
#Ustad Tanveer Ahmed Khan: My message for youngsters is
simple and straight. Indian classical music is our traditional
music. Its our duty to spread it as much as we can. If you
are promoting some other form of music, do it but do not
forget your music. Promote it too.
