Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan at WOMAD '85 An Immersive Experience

In 1985, renowned Qawwali singer Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and his group performed at the WOMAD (World of Music, Arts and Dance) festival on Mersea Island in Essex. The performance is widely regarded as one of the most important concerts of all time. Presented by the Faculty of Music, University of Oxford, and Real World Records Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan was a Pakistani vocalist, musician, composer and music director primarily a singer of qawwali, a form of Sufi devotional music. He is considered to be the greatest Sufi singer in the Punjabi and Urdu language, and World’s greatest qawwali singer ever; he is often referred to as “Shahenshah-e-Qawwali” (the King of Kings of Qawwali). He belonged to the Qawwal Bacchon Gharana (Delhi gharana) extending the 600-year old qawwali tradition of his family, Khan is widely credited with introducing qawwali music to international audiences. For one night only, we are pleased to present a remastered and immersive live performance of Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and Party at the 1985 WOMAD Festival. In 1985, renowned Qawwali singer Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and his group performed at the WOMAD (World of Music, Arts and Dance) festival on Mersea Island in Essex. The performance is widely regarded as one of the most important concerts of all time. Programme Concert (approx. 1hr) 1. Introduction 2. Allah Ho Allah Ho 3. Haq Ali Ali 4. Shahbaaz Qalandar 5. Biba Sada Dil Mor De Q&A (approx. 45mins) Immersive Audio What makes our upcoming stream uniquely different to the album release is that it has been remixed using immersive, or 'binaural' sound. The word binaural describes how humans hear - ‘bi’ meaning two and ‘aural’ referring to your ears. As we go about our lives, sound waves hit each ear at different times (time differences) and at different volumes (level differences). Using that information (combined with your eyes), the brain works out where the sound is coming from relative to your head. When you listen to ‘normal’ mixes on headphones, the music often sounds like it’s coming from inside your head as traditional mixing uses only level differences to move objects between left and right. Binaural mixing add in the time difference element and it can be created using several methods. There is a lot of research ongoing in this area, particularly during the Covid-19 pandemic, as people hope to recreate the concert experience while at home. For this performance, the engineers at Real World used a technique with which they’ve been experimenting. This involves multiple speakers from d&b audiotechnik placed around a ‘dummy’ Neumann binaural head to recreate the experience of being at the concert with the musicians actually performing. Although this recording was made on 8 track tape (and therefore uses only 8 microphones) - using restoration methods combined with this mix technique, we think we’ve created an impressive immersive concert experience. So, you can listen to our stream using speakers, but the binaural effect will only work with headphones. The original recording was made on 8 track analogue tape on July 20th 1985 at the WOMAD Festival Mersea Island, Essex. The tapes were digitised by FX and restored/mixed by Oli Jacobs at Real World Studios. Immersive surround mix by Oli Jacobs at Real World Studios. Visuals for immersive mix by York Tillyer.
