Rais Khan
**Rais Khan** (often honored as *Ustad Rais Khan*) was a legendary sitar maestro celebrated for his virtuosic contributions to Indian classical music. Born into a musical lineage tied to the Mewati gharana, he became known for his fluid, emotive playing style that blended technical precision with soulful improvisation. His career spanned decades, gracing stages worldwide and collaborating with icons like tabla genius Shankar Ghosh and sarod player Amjad Ali Khan. Albums like *Live In London 1993* (with Pandit Swapan Chatterjee) and *Best of Ustad Rais Khan* capture his mastery, while projects like *Majestic Mood* and *Dil Se Milo* reveal his knack for bridging classical rigor with accessible melodies. Though he passed in 2017, his legacy lives on through his son Farhan Khan, who continues the family’s sitar tradition. Rais Khan’s work remains a gateway for listeners exploring the depth of Hindustani classical music.
