Chhaap Tilak Sab Chheeni
1300
Ranked No. 1 in Qawwali
Written by the man usually credited with inventing the form, welding Persian, Arabic, Turkic and Indian singing into one thing. Seven hundred years later every qawwal party still has it in the set.
Aaj Rang Hai
1300
Ranked No. 5 in Qawwali
Sung on the death anniversary of his teacher, and still the closing piece at Nizamuddin's shrine. Devotional music where the devotion is to a person, not a doctrine.
