Homayun Sakhi is a master of the Afghan rubâb, the double-chambered lute that is at the heart of Afghanistanʼs Pashtun klasik tradition. Born in Kabul in 1976, he was heir to one of Afghanistanʼs great musical dynasties. His father, Ghulam Sakhi was a student and brother-in-law of Ustad Mohammed Omar, a revered musician with a direct link to the origins of Afghan classical music. He has since settled in Fremont, California, where he has quickly established himself as a leader of the local musical community and is in high demand for performances as well as workshops and teaching.
