  • Wah ustad.

  • i need a tissue some idiot spliled blood on the like bar

  • dha dhin dhin dha dha, dhin dhin dha, dha tin tin ta, ta dhin dhin dha

  • 1:46..........rau......dhina gina tak dhina gena dhina dhara gena 

  • wow this is ee tv

  • There is only one God, Jesus Christ.

  • wow amazing

  • Awesome ! :) Can never get enough of Ustad ZAKIR HUSSAIN! :)

    Just check it out from 2:50 ! :) Have loved watching him up real close as well as at many concerts big n small at & around here in SF Bay Area & at AACM (Ali Akbar College of Music, been a member of for over a decade) in San Rafael. :)

    Enjoyed Swapna Chowdhury too, but Zakir's SO much into into it while playing its just as awesome to feel the zen-mode he goes into while playing it. Charming, a personality he's to look at, as it is. :)

  • click on our username to watch a video of Zakir Hussain performing live in 2011!!

  • WOW pure genius-- this guy has got at least three brains all working at the same time in a different place---how they manage to know where they are is beyond me. Most drummer have to know where the "ONE" is. but these players just seem to get into another zone.. simply amaazzzzing.

  • rumour has it, that, ZAKIR JEE has boned the female with the taanpura(durga jasraj)

  • @shankyxyz atleast they don't know how to use mouse..

  • Pause exactly at 0:00. Thumbs up for the guy in the robe

    

  • pure genius.

  • this is a combination of three things

    born talent+continuous practice + living background

  • I listen to this almost everyday.

  • He is my God/god whichever case letter you want. I pray to him everyday before I put my hands on the tabla. he has acheieved more than any god/God I know. so piss off.

  • @shankyxyz If not for God, the universe would not exist, including the tabla and the man playing it here...so who has really achieved?

  • @NoorEmmanuel there is no evidence to suggest any such god exists and even less evidence that he can play tabla very well. the maker of this tabla, zakir is playing is not better than the player zakir. in any case theo god argument is a tautology. if god is great because he created universe, who created god and isnt that person greater?

  • @shankyxyz :) you ask a good question. I would encourage you to be a seeker, study and search the various world religions, try practicing meditation and other spiritual practices to see if the experiences can be reconciled with your current view, etc. In our belief, the evidence of God's existence is that He promised in Scripture that He would do many things, and it can be seen that He has done them. Also in personal experience through spiritual practice. I suggest you start at: maitreya.org

  • @shankyxyz i respect atheist's, and don't like religious absolutists. but, forgive me,atheists, have no more proof of non-existance,than theists, have, of existance. so,let's all please, get off our collective, self-righteous high horses.

  • @brainsareus i didnt start it. i called zakjir God if tabla and some idiot started arguing about god with me. i also respect religious people as long as they dont get in my way.

  • its pretty obvious he dos not mean there is no God he even says "there is no god. its called PRACTICE. its just a statement saying there is not tabla god (best player in the world) just like if you search guitar gods you will get thousands of ridiculous videos....and just for the record when talking about a spiritual God the G is typically capital not lower case.

  • @nathanchohany no...im pretty sure hes saying theres no god in general.

  • Ustad zakir hussain s a god's gift 4 human beings /........

  • I just want the big one what is it called? i have come to the belief that they collectively are called tabla, but the big one.

  • I see the retards have finally arrived in the comments of this video. Sad. Go back to your Justin Bieber videos, please.

    Anyway, he definitely practices incessantly and is a natural talent, but lets not overlook his background. When you start a child on a serious and directed path from a very early age and expose them to extremely high level instruction (his father was Allah Rakha), that child has the potential to develop into something special, in that field, like Zakir has with Tabla.

  • This is amazing! Thanks for the upload!

  • @MrBenCaesar

    Really? for you? but not vast majority of peoples who appreciate classical music and in anycase if you don't like it why do you watch it? 489,854 peoples watched it they liked it....if you don't like it thats fine but no need to express your disgusting remarks with profanity.

  • anyone who likes this check out album by Ravi Shankar and Phillip Glass...true East meets West...Ravi composes Indian music themes and Philip composes his own interpretation of each theme...and Phil writes minimalist classical themes and Ravi composes an Indian influenced/Sitar/Tabla piece around the minimalist theme...4 each,so 8 songs...called "Passages"....EASILY THE MOST BEAUTIFUL MEDITATIVE CD'S I HAVE EVER HEARD,AND I PLAY AND LISTEN TO EVERYTHING,FROM M.DAVIS/PANTERA/BACH/PACO DE LUCIA

  • 8 people were born without fingers.

  • @shankyxyz 9 now

  • @shankyxyz 9...and they didnt have ears either lol

  • @md88skater 10.. and they didnt have eyes as well :)

  • @md88skater 11... and their souls hate themselves

  • what kind of idiot dislikes this videoare u Fried??

  • MAN! If I coluld play like Zakir Ji, I'd audition for Britain's got talent any day!

  • incredible combination of music tabla, keyboard n sitar. everything seems so peaceful n at da same time very heart throbbing. thanx 4 sharin.

  • i want to smoke weed i may get something

  • I have uploaded this on my MP3 and listen to it to be at peace =)

  • nice peshkaar...........

  • Very Nice Ustad Zakir G kamal ho but not entertaining as Ustad Tari Khan and even tihayis are not enjoyable, excellent :)

  • wow ,,this is all about indian art.we are the best ..!!we invented tabla and its the best instrrument for me!!

  • punjabiprinze: Thanks for posted!!! Wonderful.....

    

  • PPS: if you wonder how Zakir got this wonderful technique, better watch out for Shakti!

  • PS: You can practice takteteketatake dinedenagenanake for a year, two bols that zakir plays a lot, but you will never be able to improvise this bols with other bols like he and that´s the way to get the best technique. With a good technique you can play most bols without switching and no need to practice a lot. In this discipline i think Tari Khan has the better technique without judging anybody. This solo is still the nicest tabla on youtube, so he win, but don´t try to copy this, you´ll fail.

  • @HareDeLune

    I doubt that Zakir ever practice like one bol for hours. A few minutes than next one i think. A guruji of mine was doing that repetition-stuff a lot (and is still i think) but was never able to improvise like a pro or even a semi-pro. Tabla and other instruments are not working like that and your Aloke Dutta is way under Zakir´s league. Even i play clearer and faster than that guy without touching any drum for many weeks. But yes, repetition is very important.

  • who are the dumbfucks who didnot like this

  • i am surprised the nataraja behind ustadji didnt start dancing actually. what an appropriate icon.

  • Wah Ustad...Zakir Hussain is My Idol..He has been My Idol since I started learning Tabala from My Childhood till now... Still I play Tabala by inspiring him...You are Great Sir...

  • Seven unfortunate blind people managed to hit the dislike button....

  • Most probably deaf too!

  • sensational and revetting fotunate to hear him in live concert.

  • fantastic the king the emperor the best what more we can say ? JUST WE HAVE TO LISTEN AND LOOSE OURSELF IN THE FLOW OF THIS SACRED SOUND....

  • as for me, only him can play like this

  • Weeble Wobble Dubstep bass.

  • @DeJebus lol

  • i play the tabla and im not good at. god i wish i had his talent :(

  • @djadi1995 mission impossible... :D

  • EXPRESSIVE ART no comparison should be made i agree wid shishy

  • Seven people are jealous trolls

  • It's incredible... He has such a feel for his drums.

  • The pride of Indian tabla

  • nice

    

  • Please view my tabla solo video in competition. Just search "Jibran Tabla," and my most recent one will be the second video.Comments are really appreciated, thanks a lot!

  • no words to comment......

  • watchin this makes me want to go practice lol

  • although i do not understand tabla but i can say that whatever i saw and heard right now was divine.

  • I wish i couldve heard this in person.....id be floating in space

  • you can't expect anything less from zakir hussain. he is the master

  • strava

  • WAH USTAD WAH

  • BRAVO... ABSOLUTE THE BEST OF THE BEST...

  • 2:48

  • Wow!

    Devine mastery in action.

  • superb !! thanks for posting. see also vikku in short teental solo

  • any relation this guy has with pete lockett.. they play quite the same..

  • flying fingers part1

  • THE LITHARGY IN THE EYES OF USTAD AND EVEN SHOULDERS ARE IN THE SAME STATE.THIS IS THE TRENQUALITY OF THE MUSIC.THIS IS THE DHAYANA (MEDITATION) IN THIS STATE ONE CAN PRACTISE ONLY ONE BOL(SMALL SET OF WORDS TO PLAY ON TABLA) FOR MANY HOURS EVEN 3 HRS INCESSENTLY, AND WITH NO CHANGE IN THE BOL. SEE THIS FULL CLIP AND ENJOY LIKE AS THE MASTROE IS NOT IN MOOD TO OPEN HIS EYES. AND HOW FORCEFULY HE IS OPENING EYES.ALL THE TIME HIS FACE GESTURE IS JUST NATURAL.AND- AS IF HE HAS TAKEN THE BHANG....

  • @avinashdixit01 Thank u, perhaps I too will try that. Maybe an hour first time then gradually increase the hours as the weeks go by and only keeping a small set of bols.

  • @avinashdixit01

    Why must you post your comments in Capitol letters? What are you trying to prove?

    In English language only the very first letter begins with Capitol letter....Try and remember this in future when you post your comments. posting comments in all capitol letters is VERY ANNOYING AND DAMN RIGHT RUDE...LOLS

  • @pundadah THANKS DEAR PUNPUN, I JUST VISITED UR UTUBE CHANNEL,THOUGH I CHARGE FOR MY ADVISE BUT NOT FROM POOR SO IT IS FREE TO YOU,- GAIN A GOOD KNOWLEDGE IN CLASSICAL MUSIC, ENGLISH WRITING AND BEING AN ABLE HUMAN SO THAT YOU CAN LIVE IN CULTURED WORLD-ALL MY BEST WISHES TO U..

Read my complimentary comments...You are one Idiotic Ignorant and Arrogant sod...who keeps writing in capitol letters...TWAT.

  • ABSOLUTE LEGEND

  • nice very nice ustad theres no tabla player that plays like thise but we kno who could its u

  • What a blessing.

  • the only other person who could phrase their music this beautifully is Trilok Gurtu, but he's something different altogether.

  • His tabla speaks.........it is like listening to somebody talking with such clarity tone.

  • most guys only make such faces when they're thinking of a hot chick.

    that shows he really loves what he does which explains why he has mastered his craft.

    he is absorbed by his tabla. it's like an extension of his body.

  • Ustad ji, aapke Liye Ham Duaayein de sakte hain. Malik Aapko good health de baki U r also a YUGPURUSH. i m your FAN. Ye alag bat hai ki I M SITARIST.GOD BLESS YOU. THANKS

  • top of his class! greatness indeed!

  • Superbbb

  • simply awesome!!! thx for posting!!!

  • can anyone give me the matierial which is being played in this

  • Am i the only one whose heart rate raised?

  • @albundie3 well something of mine rose...

  • d beast

  • Absoulely amazing.

  • hes just feeling it u can tell. hes great!

  • grandioso!..quando segue le note dell armonium è spettacolare..

  • Amazing...Zakirji is one the best tabla players in the world.

  • Tryin to keep up with his hands makes my eyes water...

  • Amazing i forgot how good he is

  • 1:47- 2:15..is sumthin only a DJ could do..bcoz tht seems physically impossible to do..hw he does it..i dont knw

  • Ustad means master or teacher. No DJ could do this either, unless Zakir is also a DJ... (I havent seen him do that though perhaps he has? )

  • @Graysonsoares absolutely physically possible, basically UST.JI is playing combination of" dhine gine tak dhine gine dhine nanakite"needs tons of practice

    regds

  • Music is Music...

    Lets keep it that way...

    hhahaha

    Excellent.

  • Trinumeral music festival 2008, lots of DJs and electronica, and all of a sudden him, bela fleck, and edgar myer come out and freaking make the entire place's jaws drop. this mans hands are something to behold (same can be said for edgar and bela), not to mention balls deep on L...

  • Lag raha hai jaise ustad is in a trance............ incapable of coming out............ I like his line.. When im playing the tabla Im dancing.."

  • zakirji aapki charanaon ke pranaam. the clarity is amazing...and this was like 10 years ago btw. he's only gotten better.

  • superb Hussain sab....

  • amazinggg

  • I was literally pulling my hair out by the end of this piece. How could one possibly have such fluid hands? Its as if he has rubber instead of bones in his fingers. Absolutely incredible!!!

  • Um, what did you do with all the hair you pulled out?

  • kind of teen taal dha dhin dhin dha (2), dha tin tin ta, ta dhin dhin dha 16 matre

    its a miracle done by jakir husain saheb

  • surreal!

  • Comment removed

  • @imrannaikwadi don tell dat again cause he can play dat widout looking on tabla or blindfolded

  • what is he playing? i know its some sort of tintaal but i learned jsut the basic dha dhin dhin dha 16 beats  what else does he add... does some one know a site with compositions of tintaal

  • @savageas its like many and many different sorts of bol are mixed in it we call dat masala or shangaar dats wat he's doing

  • and it just needs to be in 16 beats or else it won't be counted

  • He starts with a famous Farukhabadi Peshkar, goes into famous Punjab relas, does some variations with the theka and then turns the theka into a Rela, and then does a brilliant ending with a Chakardar!

  • I'm just in awe of how relaxed and calm he looks while executing some of the most ridiculous dexterity and accuracy one can witness in a pair of hands...

  • @Darmikalus LOL yeah, the key is relaxation and managing to play effortlessly, all the while producing the correct sounds. With half an hour practice that is possible. BUT... 3 or more hours a day and u can become very fast, maybe like Zakir Ji? It'll take many years to reach to his kind of level though. I'm not sure if aqnyone can. It's like Rajnikanth and Nusrta Fateh Ali Ji. God creates only one piece of such memorable people. However, we can be good and fast, but not AS good I suppose.

  • High on the bliss of music.

  • He is feeling the bliss of the music.

  • Comment removed

  • @killerwaz88

    what happeend? in the indian classic music (vedas creation) played by a muslim legend, you talk and scold by religion? why?

  • Insha allah! Insha allah!

  • @HareDeLune no way ustad tari khan is far more good then zakir hussain

  • @HareDeLune there is no god. its called PRACTICE. and this guy does it quite a bit

  • @NickNoRtHeRnLiGhTs dude thats a bit harsh, you are completely right about Zakir practicing all the time, but dont go saying there is no god, that just stirs up controversy.

  • @HareDeLune and dont forget aloke dutta, if zakir hussain and aloke dutta got together and played a composition, time would stand still

  • @HareDeLune His father should take a higher precedence

  • @n01an10 agreed

  • @HareDeLune he would hate you for saying that. He is muslim, and in Islam, calling someone a god is blasphemy

  • @sgtdrumsolo I thought perhaps he was a Hindu? At any rate, perhaps I was to direct with my statement. It is sometimes overly easy to offend. I was of course referring to his great skill, accumulated over a lifetime of playing. Not to any Divine status.
