Afghan Music and Entertainment

Haider Saleem (or often spelled as Haider Salim) is a reknowned Afghan singer. He has been involved with Afghan music since early 1950's and 60's. He started off as a wedding singer in home weddings and parties. Haider Saleem did not stop there. He pushed the boundaries of music and learning and today he has invented his own genre and style. Haider Saleem's voice can be recognized by almost any Afghan music lover. Haider Saleem usually sings with the classic Afghan harmonium and has to-date tried to preserve the traditional and classical Afghan music, in which he initially found himself immersed. Haider Salim is one of our favorite music artists and we wish him a long and healthy life to continually bring the best in classical and contemporary Afghan music to music lovers of Afghanistan.
