Zakir Hussain Workshop: Session 1 led by Zakir Hussain

A diverse group of instrumentalists learn fixed Raga melodies together and connect them within a rhythmic Tala cycle, in a complex arrangement that will eventually accompany Kathak dance. Zakir Hussain leads a rehearsal for an ensemble of participants whose instruments range from European violin, trumpet, cello and clarinet to tabla, drumset and various other percussion, teaching them a sequence of melodic lines based in a Raga, while holding a 7 beat rhythmic cycle underneath. carnegiehall.org/workshops
The Zakir Hussain Workshop, presented from April 13--19, 2009, was a chance for experienced musicians of any instrument and style to expand their existing knowledge through the guidance of tabla maestro Ustad Zakir Hussain and his colleagues.

That is Steve Smith on the drum kit. He's the drummer of Journey, a true student of rhythm, and an amazing musician!
