Night Song is the second collaboration between Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and Michael Brook on Real World Records. (The first is Mustt Mustt.) Kahn is best known as a Qawaal spiritual singer, while Brook is known as a producer, guitar player and maker of ethno-ambient music. Together they take the listener on an enchanting musical journey.

Nayyara Noor is a popular Ghazal - Geeth singer with a soft voice.
From childhood she was greatly influenced by Begum Akhtar's ghazal gramophone records. She managed to learn singing without much formal music education. At college level she participated and won prizes in music competitions. She started singing ghazals and geet-s for PTV dramas. Several of her well known ghazals are from this period, like Behzad Lakhnavi's "Aye jazba-e-dil gar mein chahoon".
Her background in singing for TV serials and dramas brought her opportunities to sing in TV music programs, which made her famous and a household name in Pakistan.
Apart from TV, she has sung ghazals and geet-s for a large number of films too. Her melodious voice, serious rendering is well suited for ghazals. Always shy, she has maintained high standards in singing without capitulating to popular taste. [Musical Nirvana, 2K7]
