So much talent all working together in such harmony. They even brought the audience in over and over again. Mr. Hussein is just incredibly talented. I was very close to the stage and he seem\ed both friendly and confident.
I have loved his music for some time but I could never understand from watching Youtube video just how he created such complex rhythms. Watching him live I saw how he played the entire instrument and top is not like some uniform drum at all. Watching the hands of the drummers was a treat in and of itself.
I will never forget the man who played a large clay pot. It was just amazing.

Any words of praise are less to describe it..
It was kind of divine music experience.. Heavenly music.. With Zakir Hussain, you always get more than expectations..
Other artists were equally great.. Can't say who was better than the other.. Would want to go again and again.. We purchased CD also from there..

It was simply awesome and mesmerizing. All the musicians were wonderful! The duets ("Jugalbandi") between the masters were thoroughly enjoyable. Overall a very well spent 2 and half hours of my life!

The program was great. It was a delight to Watch Zakir and his group perform. My boys enjoyed it very much; it was their first Indian musical show. They are both into music; my younger son is part of a band.
I would recommend this show to all.

Event was an unforgettable night for us. Zakhir was awesome as ever and his Jugalbandi with flute & Saarang were the best. Dance perfomances were beautiful. Worth every penny. The show keeps our feet tapping and fingers moving for the tunes.

I would rather go to a concert where Ustad Zakir Hussain plays with Pt Ravi Shankar or Anoushkha. Having attended all his concerts for the last 6 years or so, I have to painfully say that this concert is among the least liked concerts of all.
Niladri Kumar is not a very well versed or seasoned musician. I believe that Niladri kumar is being promoted aggressively to have an alternative Sitar player in the Indian music scenario.
The fusion piece was the worst of all. The playing was extremely awkward by both Ustaad and Niladri Kumar. For the other numbers there was no hint of the extreme brilliance and timing that he had displayed with Pt Shivkumar Sharma, and the other collaborators that he played with in the past.
This is the first time in my life that I went home feeling that I didnt get to see the Ustaad I really went to see.

Ustad Zakir Hussain was brilliant as allways. Along with Nandari Kurmar on sitar it was very nice. However i hoped there was less fusion and more classicial.

The concert was a treat. Zakhir hussain was magical [as expecpected] and his brother was amazing as well[surprise!!].
The event started 30 mins late..so that was little irritating , but once it started it was captivating most of the time.
A li'l more of Zakhir hussain [ or his brother!] and less of the guys on the Mrindangam would have been ideal.

Zakir Hussain is brilliant. He was phenomenal yesterday too. I have seen him perfom in Pittsburgh and Lansing. Pittsburgh program was traditional. Lansing was experimental and it worked beautifully. Boston experiment failed. It was very choppy. It was showcase of different instruments and did not have a confluence as aprogram.

This was a spectacular display of talent. Zakir Hussain is of course a wonderful performer and he never ceases to amaze me. But the amount of talent that was on stage with him, from the sarangi player, to the two violin players, was amazing. The energy on stage was high, and you could feel it sitting in the audience. You MUST see this concert if it is coming to your area!!
