- Bismillah Khan, Indian musician (born March 21, 1916, Bihar, India—died Aug. 21, 2006, Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, India), played an often-scorned woodwind instrument, the shehnai, an oboelike North Indian horn, with such expressive virtuosity that he became a leading Indian classical music artist. Born into a family of court musicians, he was apprenticed to his uncle, Ali Bux, who himself played the shehnai, in a Hindu temple in Varanasi. Although Khan was a devout Muslim, he was considered a symbol of religious harmony and accompanied his uncle in playing at ceremonies for Hindu deities, as well as at weddings. His playing at the All-India Music Conference in Calcutta (now Kolkata) in 1937 won fame for himself and respect for the shehnai as a classical music instrument. Years of radio performances and recordings followed. Perhaps his most famous performance was at Delhi’s historic Red Fort, as the Indian flag unfurled at the hour of India’s independence on Aug. 15, 1947, and he performed on television every Independence Day thereafter. Though he was internationally renowned, he turned down invitations to perform in other countries before 1966, when the Indian government insisted he perform at the Edinburgh International Festival. When Khan’s death was announced, India observed a national day of mourning
