When the musical instrument 'Tabla' is mentioned, the first name that comes to mind is Ustad Zakir Hussain. That is quite an achievement in itself for a musician. Zakir Hussain was born on March 9, 1951 and followed his father Ustad Alah Rakha's footsteps and started playing Tabla at a very young age.
As a solo musician, he has played Tabla throughout the world. As his interest in music varied, he completed courses in music in Indonesian, African and Chinese languages from The University of Seattle, Washington. He has become a international phenomenon, a tabla virtuoso with no peers and has become a national treasure of India. In recognition of his untiring contribution to the world of music, Government of India awarded him Padmashree in 1988, youngest percussionist ever to receive such award
