There are three distinct forms of music in Kashmir, namely Sufiana Mousiqi (traditional classical music) handed down to the present generation by old masters, folk music (Chakri, Rouf, Wanwun etc.) and modern light music (ghazals, geets and choral songs). Music is basically a spontaneous creation, which gives expressions to human instincts, sentiments and emotions with its universal appeal and potentially to enlighten the soul. Classical sufi scholars have defined sufism as “a science whose objective is the reparation of heart and tuning it away from all else but God”.
