Editorial Note By: Malahat Awan, President, Tehzeeb Foundation Of Pakistan

“The spirit behind Tehzeeb Foundation is to make a quality difference in promoting our culture. Our team is not new to the job but they have given themselves a more challenging assignment: world-class recitals and pure classics!

Yet in view of the upheavals - political and social - there was a big question whether this would be sustainable or not. Tehzeeb team took up the challenge and, by the grace of God, has managed to keep its commitment.

We aim at bringing the finesse of fine arts and classical music to society. We also aim towards the revival of aesthetic culture. The fabulous response that we have received from the public has been very encouraging.

In our Festival and other recitals (including our studio projects), eminent artistes of India and Pakistan have been requisitioned to perform. Our publications are aimed at promoting art and the artiste at the same time.” Source: http://tehzeebfoundation.org/Studio Recordings of the great masters and promising young artistes of our times are also being done availing sate-of-the-art digital recording.
