Ustad Zakir Hussain at Bengal Classical Music Festival 2015

#bengalclassicalmusicfestival ______________________________ Legendary Ustad Zakir Hussain started off his magical tabla recital with presenting teentaal while Sabir Khan, son of late sarangi maestro Ustad Sultan Khan, played Raga Madhukauns on his sarangi. Set on various kayda on teentaal, Ustad Zakir Hussain produced heavenly sounds representing rhythms of a train leaving a station. A stunning intrusion of chik (high-pitch sound) embellished the tehai part of the kayda. The legend's fingers seemed like magical wands that transparently generated each and every stroke incorporating standing rhythms on baya and aesthetic beats on two tablas. He played only bol on baya that thoroughly enthralled the audience as the maestro simultaneously fabricated sounds of the damru and the conch together. A breathtaking tehai was obvious at the end of the piece. A composition called “Laalkella” came next where the living legend showcased the old days' traditional drum rhythms usually styled by army musicians. He also played a Lahori gaut of 300-year old. The artiste also delineated a visual of two friends -- one is energetic and another is lethargic -- along with the piece proceeded with tisra jati bol. Slotting in just two syllables -- “Dhin” and “Ta”, the music maestro played a small particular piece pattern. Appreciating the arrangement of the biggest classical music festival of its kind in the world, Ustad Hussain recited a piece evoking invitations to the music lovers that read: come, sit down, get drunk in music, enjoy and go back home. The legend played many such magical sounds including, the sounds of a coach, a stream engine with a whistle together; a picturesque diffusion of melodic rhythm of rain falling on different surfaces; the music of dark clouds, lightning and thunderbolt; topparan (falling of a canon); startling deer and the hunter; a tripalli gaut and the sound resembling the running of horses. ┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉ Recorded at Bengal Classical Music Festival on 30th Nov 2015, at Army Stadium, Dhaka: Artistes: -Ustad Zakir Hussain (tabla) -Sabir Khan (sarangi) ================================== 🔔 Please do Subscribe & enable notifications for more contents from us! 👍 Website: http://www.bengalfoundation.org​​​​ 👍 Facebook:   / bengalfoundat.  . 👍 Twitter:   / trustfortheart.  . 👍 Instagram:   / bengalfound....  . ------------------------------------------------------------------------ © Bengal Foundation 2024
