Pakistan’s leading rock star writes songs about love and reconciliation. His embrace of social causes has invited comparisons with Bono. And now, an intelligent optimist like you can take a music lesson with him.
Yes, that’s right. Salman Ahmad has kindly offered his time for the annual Intelligent Optimist Auction. From his home near New York City, Salman will offer a unique experience. He’ll go on Skype and give you a music lesson you’ll never forget.
Read the profile piece that Salman wrote for us in 2009, for our special Intelligent Optimist’s Issue, in which changemakers of name (like him) praised the more unknown heroes, like Bilquis and Abdul Sattar Edhi.
Rock on!
