Sindh has been a land of Sufis and Saints such as Hazrat Lal Shahbaz Qalandar (Sehwan), Abdullah Shah Ghazi (Karachi), Geeay Shah Badshah (Sukkur), etc. It has also given birth to many great mystic poets such as Shah Abdul Latif Bhitai, Sachal Sar Mast, Shah Abdul Karim, etc. All the Sufis and Mystic poets of Sindh propagated the message of love, peace, brotherhood and happiness not only for the dwellers of Sindh but for the whole world. It was because of the sincere efforts of these bestowed persons of Allah that Sindh saw a permanent peace and happiness.

 

The sake of awareness of the great message of these mystic poets amongst new generation/youth, it was felt necessary by the Government of Sindh to establish an Institute and with the grace of Allah Almighty the scheme ofSindh Institute  of  Music  and  Performing  Art,  Jamshorowas   got approved by the department of Culture, Tourism, Antiquities & Archives in the interest of music lovers and the building thereof was completed and  made functional during the year 2017 . This is the landmark of the art and culture, where the art lovers are being provided the training of music, dance, acting etc. to make alive the traditions of Sindh culture.
