Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan

I am a big fan of Qawwali music. I particularly enjoy the maestro, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan's music the most. The more I read about Nusrat the more I admire the man. The following snippet from wikipedia best explains Nusrat's music:

While it is undoubtedly difficult to put into words what makes Nusrat's music so deeply appealing to so many listeners, many of whom do not understand a single word of the languages he sings in, here is one fan's attempt to explain: "Nusrat's music invites us to eavesdrop on a man communing with his God, ever so eloquently. He makes the act of singing a passionate offering to God. But we do not merely eavesdrop. The deepest part of Nusrat's magic lies in the fact that he is able to bring our hearts to resonate with the music, so deeply, that we ourselves become full partners in that offering. He sings to God, and by listening, we also sing to God".
