Sadakat Aman Khan

Sadakat Aman Khan is an sarod artist. Known for contributions to Hindustani classical music, performance, teaching, and repertoire building.

As a child he had little interest in music. His grandfather Late Yunus Khan was among the first to note his musical talents, and for some time trained him. However, he received his main training from his father Ustad Sahadat Rana Khan, initially at his house. A strict disciplinarian, Ustad Sahadat Rana Khan would insist on voice training (Swar Sadhana) from four in the morning, and make Sadakat practice one note of the scale for hours on end. A whole day would be spent on practising just a single note. It was not until he was 14 that Sadakat began to truly enjoy his musical training.
