Ustad Noor Bakhsh is a renowned musician from Pakistan’s Balochistan Province. Bakhsh is particularly well known for his mastery of the benju, a keyed zither played with a plectrum. While Bakhsh is well-versed in classical raag – an art form better known to the public – his passion lies in playing music specific to his native Balochistan, where he is considered a legend. Bakhsh only began to gain international acclaim well into his 70s, after videos of him performing went viral on Instagram.
