Early life –

He received his initial training from his maternal grand-uncle, Ustad Nissar Hussain Khan.

However, he received his main training from Nissar Hussain Khan, initially at his house in Badayun.

Career –

Rashid Khan gave his first concert at age eleven, and the following year, 1978, he performed at an ITC concert in Delhi.

In April 1980, when Nissar Hussain Khan moved to the ITC Sangeet Research Academy (SRA), Calcutta, Rashid Khan also joined the academy at the age of 14.

By 1994, he was acknowledged as a musician (a formal process) at the academy.

Musical style –

The Rampur-Sahaswan gayaki (style of singing) is closely related to the Gwalior gharana, which features medium-slow tempos, a full-throated voice and intricate rhythmic play.

He is influenced with the style of Amir Khan and Bhimsen Joshi.

He has also performed jugalbandis, along with sitarist Shahid Parvez and others.
