Aziz Mian is one of Pakistan's most famous singers of qawwali.
Aziz Mian was one of the more traditional Pakistani Qawwals. His voice was high pitched and powerful, but this was not the reason for his success. Aziz Mian was not only a great singer but also a great philosopher, he often wrote his own poems. Aziz Mian obtained a degree in Urdu from the University of Lahore. Aziz Mians qawwalis focused more on the chorus and emphasising the main point of the qawwali through repetition, very little attention is paid to the music part of the qawwali. Aziz Mian had a knack for reciting poetry to the effect that touched the audiences hearts. Although Aziz Mian mainly sang religious qawwalis he also had some succcess in the romantic field. Aziz Mian's most famous qawwali's are " MEY SHARAABI MEY SHARAABI" and "TERI SOORAT". Aziz Mian died because of complications of hepatitis in Tehran (Iran) on December 6, 2000. He was in Iran on the invitaion by Iranian government for performance on the occasion of Ali's (cousin of Prophet Muhammad) death aniversary. Aziz Mian currently has two sons who are following in his footsteps, Imran and Tabrez. Both qawwals are very similar in style to Aziz himself.
