"The great musician Hazrat Inayat Khan was a —perhaps the—pioneer in the communication of Sufi teaching in the West. This fascinating volume offers a spectrum of richly documented yet highly personal accounts of his life and Chishti heritage, his remarkable music, and his still-unfolding worldwide influences, both personal and institutional. What emerges from all those perspectives is an ever-repeated mystery: how the seeds of spiritual intention and far-sighted vision, almost 'invisible' in their own day, were so creatively transplanted and came to bear such abundant fruit. And students of religion, Sufism, and Islam will find a treasure of indispensable firsthand sources for spiritual lives and movements which would otherwise be beyond retrieving."—James W. Morris, Chair of Islamic Studies, University of Exeter "A Pearl in Wine opens an intellectual window into the fascinating life, career and teaching of a multidimensional genius mainly known for his introducing the practice of Sufism to the West. But Hazrat Inayat Khan was much more than a pioneering Sufi mystic. First and foremost he was a highly gifted musician-poet-composer. For anyone interested in Sufism, the teaching of Hazrat Inayat Khan, and the contribution he and his well-known grandfather Mawlabakhsh made to the classical music of India, this outstanding book is a major resource."—Joep Bor, Director R&D, Rotterdam Conservatory, author of The Raga Guide "This stimulating volume is a valuable contribution to the study of spirituality in our age. By connecting this manifestation of Sufism in the West with earlier traditions of Indian and Persian Sufism, the authors collectively make a powerful case for understanding contemporary religious leaders with the same degree of seriousness customarily reserved for their classical predecessors."—Carl W.
