Alam Khan is a musician deeply rooted in the Indian classical music tradition, often associated with the sarod, a stringed instrument known for its deep, resonant sound. He is the son of the late maestro Ali Akbar Khan, and hence carries on the rich legacy of the Maihar Gharana, a musical tradition or "family" within North Indian classical music. Having been immersed in music from a very young age, Alam has cultivated a profound understanding of the intricate art of the sarod and the repertoire of ragas that define his genre.

As a torchbearer of his father's legacy, Alam Khan has dedicated his life to preserving and sharing the traditional sounds of Indian classical music while also exploring contemporary influences. His recent releases, such as "The Resonance Between," reflect a deep introspection through melody and a commitment to the spiritual journey inherent in his art form. Albums like "Ascent" and "Mantram" continue to showcase his virtuosity and the emotional depth of his playing – each note woven into the fabric of the raga he brings to life. Alam's performances and compositions are not only a testament to his mastery of the sarod but also to the timeless dialogue between artist, instrument, and the subtle nuances of Indian classical music. Through his dedication and constant innovation, Alam Khan is regarded as a key figure in carrying forward the profound cultural heritage of the Indian classical music to new audiences around the world.
