Ustad Amanat Ali Khan (1932-1974) was a Hindustani classical music singer of Patiala Gharana. He was the elder of the singing duo Amanat Ali-Fateh Ali brothers, who enjoyed immense prestige and success in Pakistan as well as India, until his death. Hindustani (हिन्दुस्तानी/ہندوستانی) Classical Music is an Indian classical music tradition that took shape in northern Indian subcontinent circa the 13th and 14th centuries AD in the courts of Delhi Sultanate[citation needed] from existing religious, folk, and theatrical performance practices. ... The Patiala Gharana is one of the most prominent gharana of vocal Hindustani classical music. ... Ustad Fateh Ali Khan (???? - 1964) was the father of Qawwali musician Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. ...

Ustad Amanat was the son of Akhtar Husain Khan and grandson of Ali Bux Khan, the founder of 'Patiala Gharana.' Along with Ustad Fateh Ali Khan, Ustad Amanat started singing for gatherings ('mehfils') at an early age and they were recognised singers in the court of the Patiala king.

After independence the brothers migrated to Pakistan where they continued to sing, gaining popularity not only in Pakistan but the entire sub-continent.

Ustad Amanat received the 'Pride of Performance' award form the government of Pakistan.

The baton of the Patiala gharana has been carried on of sorts by Ustad Amanat Ali Khan's son, Shafqat Amanat Ali Khan.
