Description
Faiz Ahmed Faiz is a name that inspires visuals of revolutionary verse that has by now become folklore in the subcontinent. The ex-army man was also the recipient of the much acclaimed Lenin Peace Prize. He once famously said ‘The Urdu language, takes to poetry rather easily but to write good poetry in Urdu is a tough ask. Faiz not only struck the right balance but also stirred hearts with his thought provoking and powerful writings.
Nayyara Noor, the versatile singer is one of the luminous names that has performed the ghazal with rare sensitivity. Her soft rendering that almost whispers in your ear hits home with Faiz’s powerful poetry. Her reach as an artist spans all kinds of audiences and has won plaudits from the musical and literary fraternity including the likes of Faiz himself.
The contrast between the rendering and the poignant verse of Faiz makes Nayyara sings Faiz an album to delight in.
