Some of the best from the ajrak clad Abida Parveen on 4
audiocassettes
Abida Parveen is considered by many as one of the
greatest singers of the sufiana kalaam
Everything
about the artist is noticeably different from her
contemporaries. A loose full-sleeved kurta and
shalwar with Sindhi ajrak chadar draped over her
shoulder is the trademark dress of Abida Parveen. With no
make-up on and very little adornment of any kind she comes
of as a devoted and honest performer of her craft. It’s this
faithful devotion to the Sufi’s that brings about the kind
of intensity that over powers the audience.
