Bade Ghulam Ali Khan (1902–1968) stands as one of the most influential Hindustani classical vocalists of the 20th century. His contributions to thumri, dadra, and khyal genres earned him widespread acclaim, including the Sangeet Natak Akademi Award in 1962. Posthumous releases like Immortal Thumris compile archival material to introduce his work to later generations, with Saregama serving as the primary custodian of his recorded legacy.
