Historically, South Asian music flourished under the patronage of wealthy individuals and families. Today, in North America universities have become major patrons in supporting the presentation and understanding of such music, alongside community groups and music societies. Under the supervision of ethnomusicology professor, Regula Qureshi, Jessica Keyes and Karim Gillani have had the opportunity to study different types of South Asian devotional music in a distinctly Canadian context.

Ismailimail 
Many thanks Ismailimail for sharing this story! Without any doubt the cultural, religious and musical heritage of diverse Muslims represent the mystical dimension of Islam which needs to be shared across in the West rather then stereo type image of Muslims which we often see now a days in the Western media!
”God created male and female and made you into communities and tribes, so that you may know one another.” (49.13) (Al-Quran)
