Legendary singer and composer Rahat Fateh Ali Khan will perform at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert, which will be held at the Oslo Spektrum Arena on December 11. This is the second time a Pakistani will be performing at the occasion. Pakistani band Junoon previously performed at a similar event in 2007. The concert and ceremony, to be hosted by Queen Latifah, will honour Pakistans youngest-ever recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize, Malala Yousafzai, for the work she has done to promote childrens rights, particularly for education. Each year the Nobel Peace Prize Concert gathers a host and selection of talented artists from around the world to pay tribute to the year’s laureate. The resulting show is a virtual melting pot of melodies ranging in genre from classical to rap. According to local media reports, the renowned singer felt honoured to be representing Pakistan overseas. Pakistanis know how to make a place in people’s hearts with our melodious music,” he said.
