Sultan Mohammad Miazoi

While specialising on the art of the Afghan rabāb, Sultan Mohammad Miazoi also is a skilful tabla and harmonia player, and a trained singer.

Having left his war-torn country in 1989 Sultan continues to pursue his love and passion for music by repairing and crafting Afghan traditional musical instruments, organising live performances, and teaching young Afghans in Melbourne to play traditional Afghan instruments, including his beloved rabāb.

Sultan is a well-established and recognised musician not only among the Afghan community of Melbourne but also within the broader Australian community. He has performed on many occasions, including for a documentary film, The President Versus David Hicks. In 2002 he released his solo rabāb CD Rohnawaz, which is dedicated to his mentor Ustad Rohnawaz.
