Rare Tabla Piece By The God of Tabla Ustad Zakir hussain

[@cassiuskhan1]

Truly truly the God of Tabla. Kya layakaari, kya adaegi wah wah wah.

[@mpsmd]

If someone listened to old recordings, Ustad Ahmadjan Thirakwa used to play this very often. Here Ustadji made so many wonderful variations bringing in new new colours, amazing!

[@TablaUK]

mpsmd Do you know this piece is called ? You mentioned Thirakwa so maybe you suggest the track/album ??

[@anand.datir10]

Absolutely.

[@mpsmd]

@@TablaUK Sorry, I just saw your question. I am not sure if this piece has a particular name...it could be a chalan...I may be wrong though...But yes I heard this one played by Thirakwa Saheb. You might look for an album of Thirkwa Saheb with Pandit Ravi Shankar, I have that one, its an LP record. There he played solo. You will find it there. I cannot recall if the available solo recordings of Thirakwa Saheb have this one.

[@raghunathkulkarni8839]

mpsmd this is a Farukabad kayada.Ustad Zaqir Hussain has improvised it in different manner. One can listen it being played by Late Ustad Nizamuddin Khan as well as byLate Ustad Thirakava

[@mpsmd]

@@raghunathkulkarni8839 Raghunath ji, thank you very much for getting back on this. Your references are very enriching. But I have one question. Are you sure this is a kayeda? I do not think so. If it is a kayeda, then where are the bhari-khali parts. Secondly, kayedas have typical variations. That is neither seen in Zakir ji's playing nor I have heard that in Thirakwa shaeb's recording. They both do some variations of the same paragraph. It more sounds like a gat (or chalan?) to me.

[@sriramvenkatesh8667]

Only Ustadji can play such intricate and sophisticated variations. I don't think I've seen anybody come close to Ustadji's laykaari, and this is what sets Ustadji apart from the rest of the tabla artists. Nevertheless, this was ABSOLUTELY mind - blowing, and I could feel that music emanating from him all the time. Just awesome.

[@girisubmarine]

Chris Joseph, The "S" is a rest/pause for 1 beat.

This is not laal Qila gat,it's the kayada by Ahmed Jaan thirakwaa Khan sahab

[@tamaghnachakraborty3229]

this is from our "farukkhabad" gharana. this is here called "chalan"

[@rupsahadoyenofclassicalmus9933]

Ohh..we don't know actually what is gharana..but By the Structure of bols and their sound variations we can understand of what matter the bol is..this is a farukkabad chalan..its truly..farukkabad

[@thetraveller3278]

To clarify, it is a gat.

[@tablaholic_jinay]

Dhruv Bosé yes I think it's it's a gat quida which Ustad thirakwa khan sabah often played

[@saratpal4654]

It is a farrukabad chalan
