Ustad Rais Bale Khan and Ustad Hafiz Bale Khan are familiar names in the world of Hindustani music. Belonging to the Kirana & Dharwad Gharana, they have carved a unique niche for themselves in the area of classical sitar over and above the lineage they have inherited. They belong to the family of Late Sitar Ratna Rahimat Khan (great-grandfather), Late Ustad Abdul Karim Khan (grandfather) and Late Ustad Bale Khan (father)—all credited with popularizing the sitar in south India. Under this esteemed tutelage, the brothers have developed a unique jugalbandi presentation—an engrossing music conversation.
