Review by Gregg Tomlinson
The album "Sufyana Musiqi: The Classical Music of Kashmir" is a remarkable piece of intercultural music that showcases the traditional music of Kashmir. Josef M Pacholczyk has done an excellent job of compiling and presenting the music in a way that is both authentic and accessible to a wider audience.
The album features a variety of instruments, including the santoor, tabla, and sitar, which are all skillfully played by the musicians. The melodies and rhythms are intricate and captivating, transporting the listener to the beautiful region of Kashmir.
The album is also accompanied by detailed liner notes that provide context and insight into the history and cultural significance of the music. This adds an extra layer of appreciation for the music and enhances the overall listening experience.

- Book + CD: Josef M. Pacholczyk - Sufyana Musiqi - The Classical Music of Kashmir, Intercultural Music Studies Vol. 9, Book and Compact Disc, 216 p., 7 illustrations, 18 tab., 219 musical examples, index, bibliography, appendices, Hardcover, 13,5 x 21 cm, VWB Verlag, ISBN 3-86135-640-6
- "Sufyana musiqi" (Sufi music) is the vocal ensemble music of the urban elite of Kashmir, a part of Jammu and Kashmir, the nothernmost province of India. It functions principally as a religious music, being connected with the rituals of the Sufis (Muslim mystics) and as an elite entertainment music performed in a secular context. Sufyana reflects the cultural position of Kashmir as a meeting point between the Persian-dominated culture of Central Asia and India.
- Through the description and analysis of the practice, repertory, context, and theory, the book documents this now quickly disappearing tradition. It contains an analytical catalog of forty-seven maqam suites in use in the 1970s and 1980s.
- The musicians on the CD sing old Sufi poetry in Persian or Kashmiri. Very beautiful repertoire. Excellent.
