'''Ustad Nissar Hussain Khan''' (1909–93) was an [[Hindustani classical music|Indian classical]] vocalist from the [[Rampur-Sahaswan gharana|Rampur-Sahaswan]] [[gharana]]. He was a disciple and son of [[Fida Hussain Khan]] and after a long and illustrious career was awarded the [[Padma Bhushan]] in 1971.<ref name="Padma Awards">{{cite web|url=http://mha.nic.in/sites/upload_files/mha/files/LST-PDAWD-2013.pdf |title=Padma Awards |publisher=Ministry of Home Affairs, Government of India |date=2016 |access-date=January 3, 2016 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://www.webcitation.org/6U68ulwpb?url=http://mha.nic.in/sites/upload_files/mha/files/LST-PDAWD-2013.pdf |archive-date=November 15, 2014 }}</ref> He was the court musician of [[Maharaja Sayajirao Gaekwad III]] at [[Baroda]] and was featured extensively on [[All India Radio]]. He was a specialist in [[Tarana]]. His most famous disciples are [[Ghulam Mustafa Khan (singer)|Ghulam Mustafa Khan]] and [[Rashid Khan (musician)|Rashid Khan]].<br />
<br />
==Vocal style==<br />
Khansahib inherited a vast repertoire of well-known and obscure melodies from his forebearers. His rich, resonant voice was cultivated through decades of training. He embellishes the [[Mode (music)|modal]] form of the ragas with flashes of "[[gamaks]]", "[[bol-taans]]" and "[[sargams]]". As an exponent of the "[[khyal]]" style, he renders "[[tarana]]s" with distinction.<ref>All India Radio/Odeon LP, PMLP 3065, 1990.</ref><br />
<br />
==Lineage==<br />
Khan's most famous disciple was his grandnephew Rashid Khan. He trained Rashid in the traditional master-apprentice manner, first at his own residence at [[Badaun]], [[Uttar Pradesh]], and subsequently at the [[Sangeet Research Academy]] in [[Calcutta]], where he spent the last years of his life.<br />
<br />
Khansahib's gharana, the Rampur-Sahaswan gharana, owes its existence to the [[Senia Gharana|Senia]] traditions and has a revered lineage of classical vocalists such as [[Bahadur Hussain Khan]], [[Inayat Hussain Khan]], [[Fida Hussain Khan]] and [[Mushtaq Hussain Khan]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.ustadrashidkhan.com/biography_backg.htm|title = The Biography Background - Ustad Rashid Khan}}</ref><br />
