Zakir Hussain is the preeminent tabla virtuoso of our time, the first and foremost Indian musician to bring the classical percussion instrument to global prominence. He is also a prolific composer and a tireless educator, committed to passing on his art. In 1994, Hussain was riding high on the success of his Grammy-winning collaboration with Mickey Hart, 'Planet Drum,' and had recently released 'Kutle Khan,' a significant collaboration with the Rajasthani folk singer and multi-instrumentalist.
