In a dazzling display of Indian percussion, tabla superstar Zakir Hussain is joined by the finest percussionists from India’s classical and folk traditions, including the great sarangi (stringed instrument) maestro Ustad Sultan Khan and Niladri Kumar, undoubtedly one of the finest young sitar virtuosos. The 10-member ensemble also features Hussain’s brothers Fazal Qureshi on tabla and kanjira and Taufiq Qureshi on various percussion instruments, Vijay Chauhan on pakhawaj and dholak (folk drums), Abbos Kosimov on doira (Uzbek national percussion instrument), Ram Kishan on nagada (Indian kettle drums), and the Meitei Pung Cholom Performing Troupe, one of India’s premier performance troupes dedicated to Manipuri drum and dance styles.
