+Farida Nanji Zakir was taught the language bol before he came out of the womb, and grew up with a tabla master of immense proportions, if you call Alla Rakha god then yes Zakir is a gift from god. When ones life is programmed by skillful caretakers you develop your skills early, and hence get a head start at learning a skill. Thank you Alla Rakha, thank you Zakir Hussein, and thank you all who have been a part of this great performance
OMG...best concert I've ever seen on the RUclips! My wife has been yelling at me to get off but just couldn't leave the screen! Best Tabla drumming I've ever heard!
How variously beautiful is our country and its rhythms, let us celebrate it. I remember the words of Usad Bade Gulam Ali Khan "If every boy and girl in every home knew Hindustani music this country would never have become two". Which beyond petty nationalism, implies that people are united in their culture though countries separate them. When fundamentalists try to paint a monochrome picture of India they always try to forget the rich amalgam of histories that is India in its present form.
quantrake beg to disagree with the bade khan saheb. Thanks goodness it was divided. otherwise instead of music would have had bombs and shariah everywhere.
Ypumdo Do you know classical music and heritage is pretty much destroyed in Pakistan, it is barely survivng in big cities of Pakistan but not in good health. There is mo multicultural or multi religion exist in pakistan (don’t count ever decreasing minority). Lets come out of this fenciful glorious past descriptions by Nehru clan as there was none. Hell aurangzeb banned music as it was against islam. Thank god for partition. Not saying pakistanis are bad but majority of Pakistani don’t consider this as their culture and they associate themselves more with Arabs and turks.
The maestro of the tabla blesses us again with his extraordinary playing and that of his fellow percussionists and drummers. As well as the great Niladri Kumar on the sitar. Thank you for this video, capturing the best of the best, supreme musicians. I have been blessed to see Zakir three times with L. Shankar; once with Shivkumar Sharma. As well as attend his tabla classes; and the Masters of Percussion, once in a small church in Berkeley (The same place I saw Ali Akbar Khan!); and at the Zellerbach Auditorium, U.C. Berkeley. He has enriched my life beyond measure. All love and gratitude 🙏 ❤
+Amrinder Singh (Rubal) .. right .. although you personally did not do anything special to make that happen .... in other words, you were not given any other choice ...
Zakir Hussain does this Masters of Percussion series live tour many times. Everytime its with different artist. I have seen one here (San Francisco bay area) back in late 90s. Its to be experienced 'Live'!
Absolutely insane. Almost missed the concert on the 1st tour of Masters Of Percussion in Edmonton after smoking joints on the parkade roof next to the venue. Made it in with seconds to spare and had my mind blown completely up.
Niladri Kumar is the extraordinary sitar player for all who are interested to know (!) He has some wonderful recordings. One that is mind blowing, with a bass player named Jonas Hellborg. And a beautiful one with sarod player Chinmaya Dunster.
I really enjoyed the the sitar and tabla starting at 1:20:00. Im a westerner with out much knowledge of this style, but I found it soothing and memorizing,
The finest sarangi lehera I’ve ever heard. To play two distinct ragas for each tabla player was genius. I couldn’t place the first raga, but I could place the second. It was Charukeshi. Can anyone place define the first raga that was played Zakir ji? Thank you
&^%$ ISIS or any such sand people of extremeties...........( read the pun LOL) Now: music with million varieties, as many as there are distinct vocal cord formations, ...& instruments are forever thriving like life on this planet that no one needs blinds/mutes/dumbs made thru prolonged use of dumb psycholocial necrophylial systems to tell us ANYTHING. just keep on making it..............
Please forgive my ignorance, I have discovered short time ago the world of Indisn Classical Music but...I find Sarangi player on this performance is a monster, I am astonished hearing him...who is this player?
Very impressive amasing awesome ...thats it ..to admire this concert only i should improve or do research new words from other dan at present my vocabulary.thats enough i think.
If anyone could answer my question i would greatly appreciate it. I play tabla and also weight train. Recently during heavy riyaz i find it hard to practice for long periods of time due to muscle soreness from working out. Also i do powerlifting so does that make it worse? (make arm stiff, not being able to relax to play tabla comfortably, make me slower at tabla)?? please someone answer, thank you
Thank you so much for your reply Almas. I will now answer your questions. I have been training for about 2 years. Powerlifting consists of using heavy weights with short amount of reps, eg 5. Therefore in my opinion it doesn't really promote flexbility in ones body or supplement tabla playing. I haven't trained since I posted that message and feel like I have soo much energy now. I know what your saying about changing routines often and how it fatigues you more, but powerlifting specifically holds me back in terms of stiffness. I'm gonna start calisthenics. It's way more natural on the body and I think it will supplement tabla playing brilliantly. What do you think?
Zakir Hussein is a gift from Allah to the mankind.
why bring religion in everything?
Tejas Gokhale Yes Zakir Hussain is god gifted.
Farida Nanji He's a child of millennium of musical culture and development.
+Dipankar Jana .. I would say that he has got the natural gift ....

That's so true! It chooses you. Not the other way around.
Vaah.Hindustan rhythm ka jawab nahin.
The finest sarangi lehera I’ve ever heard. To play two distinct ragas for each tabla player was genius. I couldn’t place the first raga, but I could place the second. It was Charukeshi. Can anyone place define the first raga that was played Zakir ji? Thank you

Sarangi sounds sorrowful sunset. Surprisingly superb
Fantastic!
