Raaga:
Behag Tabla: Ananda Gopal Banerjee Harmonium: Jyoti Goho "A recent recital of Behag in a private soiree where Rashid Khan was being recorded by the newly revived Hindustan (Records) of C.C. Saha fame moved me as nothig has in recent times. His swarprayog, the timbre of his voice which produces the fortissimo pianissimo effect at will (wrongly called modulation by us Indians), the emotional content of his music indicate a dignified yet graceful spontaneity which I have not noticed in any other musician of his generation." "He plays with the key phrases with the instinct of a natural musician. His taans cascade like fountains and how wistful he sounds in the higher notes. here is a young man born to adorn the world of music in years to come with the unspoiled innocence of a teenager and the maturity of an Ustad far beyond his years. Rashid Khan has that untranslatable word taseer, the ability to create a genune impact on his listeners." Kumar prasad Mukherjee,
