Zakir Hussain Tabla & Taal Demonstration – Part 2 of 4

Over the past 5 months I have spiritually profited from the enormous generosity of the youtube community by posting tabla, indian classical, & ghazals compositions. This video is my first contribution as a “thank you” to everyone who took the time to post and share their precious videos. Today the title “Ustad” is being applied to almost anyone who can do something better than the reviewer. In the true sense of the word, Zakir Hussain is the exemplification of an “Ustad” because he’s not only mechanically crisp and well-balanced on both drums, but uses the tabla as an extension of his mind to compliment the current mood to stir & stun audiences. Some have better clarity, some have faster hands, but indeed there are only a handful of tabla players that can hold the stage with Zakir and match his “mitaas” or sweetness. He’s truly in a class by himself. In this piece, you will see Zakir’s comical and fun-loving personality as well as his mastery of the tabla and Indian sangeet in general. In the world of taal, he’s what you would call the “total package”. Hope you enjoy the video. It’s all in Hindi though.

Urdu and Hindi I think are simply seperate names for one language. Any differences can be attributed to differences in dialects.
