Yasmin Kidwai on Instagram: "Qawwali is a form of devotional music. It blends poetry, music, and vocal performance to create an emotionally charged and spiritually uplifting experience. At its height - Sama is the result of the powerful vocals, rhythmic clapping, and instruments like the tabla and harmonium. Everyone who has been to a Qawwali has experienced Sama in some way. Written in Urdu, Persian, or Punjabi, Qawwali explores themes of divine love, spiritual longing, and mystic experiences.
