“Melody of Lahore” is a narrative which concentrates on the music group of Lahore, which until the late 1970s, was widely acclaimed for its music and ability. In 2004, Izzat Majeed established Sachal Studios to make a space for customary music in a country that had rejected its musical roots. In the wake of persuading various expert musical artists to get their instruments once more, they quietly discharged some traditional and people collections, however a trial collection combining jazz and South Asian instruments brought Sachal Studios overall praise. “Melody of Lahore” turns the focus on Sachal Studios and contracts the group’s trip to recover and reinvigorate a craftsmanship that has lost its space in Pakistan’s narrowing social circle.
