Play Like a Lion: The Legacy of Maestro Ali Akbar Khan
Joshua Dylan Mellars, Alam Khan, and Producer Mojib Aimaq in Person
When a young Alam Khan wonders about his family's religion, his father, master North Indian musician Ali Akbar Khan, tells him, "Music is our religion." Play Like a Lion explores the deep musical lineage of the Khan familya tradition in which the lines between father and teacher are blurred and the intervals between duty, love and music become a devotional song. Alam, a prodigious musician taught at his father's feet, is our guide for a rich, soulful journey into the legacy of the great maestro. Entrancing musical virtuosity and moving homage are on display in footage featuring concerts, class time at the famed Ali Akbar School of Music and tribute performances by musical luminaries like Carlos Santana, Zakir Hussain and Mickey Hart. -Mill Valley Film Festival
