Man apart from that everything is breathtaking, what is driving me nuts is how Zakir Hussain feeds back at the end of his solo E v e r y cue thrown at him from every musician simultaneously and binding everything together. What a moment! What an energy!
Absolutely fucking stunning!! Berklee and it's students are a national and international treasure. And Ustadji is, well, Ustadji in all his brilliance!
The original Tune for this was from Bharathiyar's song called Vellai Thamarai, which later adopted as Lady L. Just for the record since the origin of this song is not mentioned in the description.
This raga is Aabheri and the rendition and arrangement is beyond heavenly with rich cultural overtones This is how the great art of music is painted on the canvas of the mind Berkelee and Ustaad Zakir Wah!
11 minutes and 9 seconds of pure bliss. Bought album Shakti in 1976 by coincidence and it became a favorite of mine. Now 44 years rediscovering Indian Fusion music dir lack of a better word. And there is sooo much! Check out all the collaborations of Zakir Hussein. This is the music of 21 Century - new time signatures - promise of finally establishing the tent of Unity for all humankind.
I love the Indian compositions and constructs using ancient and contemporary expressions! Kudos to inclusivity and evolutions among us all!!! Namaste heroes and artists. Otto knows better.
Wow that cellist is insanely good, love the little details in his bowing and his meends were beautiful. Guitar player was really good too, love the phrasing, the modern jazz harmonic vocabulary and him picking all(or most)the notes added a nice contrast to the previous solo. The rhythm section did amazing jobs interacting with Zakir's playing especially that pianist comping during Zakir's solo. Obvious, Zakir and the violin player are outstanding players. I hope to be 1% as good as these players one day, however unlikely that may be. It did give me a list of new musicians to follow and learn from.
When the art surpasses the stage of hardwork & excellence it becomes spiritual. At this point it is an integral part of an artist, thus moulds in the way the artist desires.
I attended a concert by Zakir Hussain in New York City. I treasure that experience. Not only is he a master technician but his love of music shines out. This Ensemble is like a personification of his musical vision. Reminds me of Shakti and Oregon, but has its own sophistication.
Simply epic! The buildup and dissonant double stops etc on the guitar - wow! And the smile and nod from Ustad ji at the end - "I've been doing this 5 decades+, guys!"
I am really, really interested in meeting those 154 souls that "disliked" this video and understand their thought process. Seriously?!? What was there to dislike about this breathtaking piece of music ???
woowww..this is stunninshing music...realy the United Performance of Music...did you notice they have ..hoolywood actors..Solist Spiderman..in guitar..the crazy??? Harry potter in cello...the Sensual !!! Jack sparoww with bizzarr stufff ..looklike beach pearl (from barbossa trezor)..hhh and... Ucher in piano...
This piece is so beautiful. I have always loved hearing Shakti play it. This ensemble group with none other than Zakir Hussain leading it, does a splendid job. Lovely, blissful. 🕉
Damn, this was blissful, I feel sad for choosing engineering as a career choice. As a high school student my only passion was playing drums. I always feel like I don't belong among these nerds who have nothing going on in their lives except studying. My dream was to play a big gig and perform a solo. It is still a dream and I get goosebumps just by thinking about it!
This beautiful song from L.Shankar is well arranged, with the players playing the best , and the drummer with creative playing fully integrated with Zakir. I love this performance
OMG! Why do I feel so elated, so happy, so intoxicated... feel that this should never stop... Oh, it’s L Shankar’s music, Zakir leading, this group of awesome Berklee ensemble creating the magic! Kudos and please never stop.
I am blessed that I heard it .... I was at the feet of Lord Krishna I felt.... Sublime and Serene.... Zakir Bhai and this entire crew is outta this chaotic world...
Through the Tabla solo, it was amazing to see the time signatures and piano/cellos were trying to come in at various points. It was just amazing to see Ustadji just giving everyone a chance to appreciate the beauty of tabla!
Here a legend of our life time, Ustaad Zakir Hussain ji is teaching us the secret to remain young & relevant : By inspiring the youth & loving & mentoring the youth.
Legends of the time on this planet, Pure Artists All around the world ❤️❤️❤️ But Brazilian Guitarist Took My Heart away with his Notes 3:36 to 3:40. This 5 seconds were Awesome for me...🥰🤗 Love You Guys God Bless all of You...❣️😇
Zakir is sitting there looking around like "are none of you going to improvise?... I didn't even practice before I came here."
That dude playing piano is enjoying to the fullest
Man apart from that everything is breathtaking, what is driving me nuts is how Zakir Hussain feeds back at the end of his solo E v e r y cue thrown at him from every musician simultaneously and binding everything together. What a moment! What an energy!
Never thought Hindustani+Carnatic+Western classical music mix would be so good.
Absolutely fucking stunning!! Berklee and it's students are a national and international treasure. And Ustadji is, well, Ustadji in all his brilliance!
Hey, you. Whoever reading this, this is your sign. Everything's gonna be okay. You did not come this far to give up. I believe in you..
What on earth do we need more than this.
At the age of 70 such an energetic performance....salute to ustad zakir sir....
The original Tune for this was from Bharathiyar's song called Vellai Thamarai, which later adopted as Lady L. Just for the record since the origin of this song is not mentioned in the description.
This 11 minutes of eternal bliss can destroy multiple careers.
This raga is Aabheri and the rendition and arrangement is beyond heavenly with rich cultural overtones
This is how the great art of music is painted on the canvas of the mind
Berkelee and Ustaad Zakir
Wah!

Jeez, the tabla sound really wakes up a certain area of my brain
Once in a while, RUclips manages to transport to heaven with its recommendations ✨ ☺ 👏 This recording was brilliant. Amazing 👌❤🙏
Incredible! Sadly this will never reach millions of views... but hey, quality > quantity right?
That drummer girl....OMG! So precise and accurate at following tablas patterns...amazing musicians and amazing performance!
I love the Indian compositions and constructs using ancient and contemporary expressions! Kudos to inclusivity and evolutions among us all!!! Namaste heroes and artists. Otto knows better.
To realise what humans can do, makes me cry
Lovely, I'm in tears here in Sweden💞
Imagine Hans Zimmer watching this video and calling Ustad Zakir sir for making his next master piece music
Hussain sir is timeless his tabla will resonate across the universe and generations. how blessed are we to witness a maestro like him in our lifetime
Indian culture and heritage is out of bound,still lots to learn🙏🙏love my India 🇮🇳🇮🇳
Wonderful.
I saw Zakir Hussain play with Ali Akbar Khan in '87 in a small London theatre. I was sitting on the floor 2-3 metres from those maestros. 💗

I hope to be 1% as good as these players one day, however unlikely that may be. It did give me a list of new musicians to follow and learn from.
Wasn’t going to comment because everyone else seems to have already gotten the general vibe here but holy shit this was amazing
Salute to Greatest Tablist Ustad Zakir Hussain Saheb 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💐💐💐🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️

从头到尾我一秒都不想断的LIVE。不只是即兴、歌唱性、情绪，也不只是冷静、思考。这是音乐。太牛逼了！
Indian composition at it's very best complimented by international musicians...
Only Berklee could pull off something like this.
Giving this song a cello flavour was a masterstroke.
Simply epic! The buildup and dissonant double stops etc on the guitar - wow! And the smile and nod from Ustad ji at the end - "I've been doing this 5 decades+, guys!"
Ain't no body Beats India culture and music
From Australia...bravo!
I am really, really interested in meeting those 154 souls that "disliked" this video and understand their thought process. Seriously?!? What was there to dislike about this breathtaking piece of music ???

Magic of Indian classical 🙏👍💐🌼💮
Q: How many time signature you can play?
Zakir: Yes
This is probably the best musical performance I’ve ever seen.
Surprising is that a 7/8 beat sequence and no one could figure it.! That's Ustad Zakir Hussain❤
What an experience...
On my playlist of into the heavens!
"How [more] dramatic can an entrance into the heaven be with this playback?"
11.90 minutes of pure bliss, the only time I can feel entirely lost in the moment is with music like this❤️
It’s not just the music itself , it is also these incredible musicians who are immersed in their music that makes this a masterpiece ❤
Complexity of Indian music 💓💓💓💓💓
No words to describe this wonderful performance!! Sooo beautiful...How many are watching this in 2022 ?
Violin with saree is a amazing combination 🙌🙌
7:47 aah synchronization! Real magic starts from here!
Through the Tabla solo, it was amazing to see the time signatures and piano/cellos were trying to come in at various points. It was just amazing to see Ustadji just giving everyone a chance to appreciate the beauty of tabla!
So underrated. This should cross millions of views by now.
Ustad of ustads ZAKIR🔥
one of the best live jams ever imo. this was ridiculously crisp
Absolutely gorgeous! what a great young talent full of spirit! And the ever astonishing and awe-inspiring Zakir ji!!! Big Wah!
This is an evolutionary milestone in music
I’m crying!!! Soooo good ❤️😭
When God Himself plays with you, no wonder the performance is so sublime and heavenly! Pure joy!
What shocked me is the "improvisation" ....so much *IMPROVISATION* at a genius level !!👏👏👏
