Zakir Hussain: Horse Running REACTION! l INSANE TABLA SKILLS 

What other Videos should we react to???

Imagine getting slapped by Zakir Hussain. He would've slapped you 20 times before you realize it.

How many of you remember him saying “Wah Taj”!!

Flash - I'm the fastest Zakir Hussain - hold my tabla

He is not just Zakir hussain...he is "Ustad Zakir Hussain"

if zakir hussain slaps anyone it would be the end.

This is Indian Classical Music. The living legend. I'm proud to be a student of him.

In 1999, Zakir hussain was awarded the United States National Endowment for the Arts' National Heritage Fellowship, the highest award given to traditional artists and musicians.

He practices 16 hours a day. And he started when he was 1 year or so. Tabla has its own language.

*Plz react on Pandit ravi shankar and ustad allah rakha monterey pop concert*

Even the horse couldn't keep up with zakir's tabla skills🤣🤣😝😍

My father plays tabla... He has qualified 8 exams of tabla. He is Tabla Visharad (masterd). When he was learning tabla... He used to tie stones of 1kg weight to his both wrist to get the proper grip... Imagine how Ustad Zakir have practiced to reach at that leavel...?

The amount of hard work, dedication, time and practice being put up by Ustad ji over the years is absolutely insane. This is what a maestro looks like. Enjoying his craft way beyond the comprehension of others. Creating new beats while playing live. This is perfection. He is truly the God of tabla.

If there is a Tabla Olympic, we have secured a gold 🇮🇳

His father was a legendary Tabla player Ustad Alla Rakha, watch Ustad Alla Rakha and Ravi Shankar performing at Woodstock in 1960s.its available on RU-vid

Zakir Hussain : San Diego Oct 16 and Santa Barbara Oct 19 ...Do go and watch him live 👍

I am so glad that I was born in an era that could listen understand and appreciate Ustad Zakir Hussain sahab.....

I want you guys to know 2 things 1. There are "gharanas" in India. So gharanas are actually centres of Indian classical music learning where the knowledge of music is being passed down for generations. Some of the oldest gharanas date back to 15th - 16th century. And there are MANY gharanas throughout India. 2. In the middle of his perfomance, he said some things, those were "bols" or actually notes. In short he was playing what he was saying which was Tabla bols (notes)

Zakir Hussain is one of the biggest name in this field ❣❣❣

Zakir Hussain : San Diego Oct 16th & Santa Barbara Oct 19th.. do go & watch him live!

He is GOD of tabla playing......No better than him in this world who can play tabla like that

I am a katthak dancer, and I could barely sit in one place after hearing him... And this is what happens every time you hear him😅

First of all tabla is hard. i attended tabla classes for 3months and its hard for first one month no noise came for tabla u have to train your fingers and coordinating both hands at same time is also difficult 😁

Finally !!!! You guys reacted to one of his performances. Zakir Hussain is one of the Greatest Tabla Players EVER !! and he is phenomenal !

When I'll die, I'll be listening to him. Its more of a meditation than music to me.

This is Indian classical music.. And he is one of the best tabla maestro's in India... This is the level of mastery.. Proud to be a Indian.

Best part---"Those were his fingers man!" -Korbin

That amount of control over his fingers... Imagine him playing a FPP battle royale video game on keyboard.....

To those who are still curious how good he is at Tabla, imagine that he can communicate with you with Tabla while you speak without confusing you at all.

Rick rightly says, "Zakir Hussain is tabla and tabla is Zakir Hussain."

32 strokes a second. The lord of Tabla. Thanks for your appreciation and love. God bless you.

What he does is humanly not possible. That’s why he is one of the Gods in music industry.

My goshhh....how can Sir Zakir could be so relaxed while playing tabla like this!! 6:06 *especially* 6:52 This is insane...😳😱

We also have a special chapter in CBSE English book on this great personality

It seems that tabla is playing automatically, tabla is respecting the Legend"zakir hussian sahab". " Kohinoor". Unbeatable

Watch Zakir Hussain and Rakesh Chaurasia jugalbandi..... Watch Anoushka Sankar and Legend Ravi Sankar play Sitar.....

Rick looks like an experienced man he probably understands the different cultures and can feel it too.

Hold your ear, and say - 'Wah Ustad' Transcendent!

Zakir Husain is a living legend. It’s a divine treat to watch him playing tabla.

*Ustad Zakir Hussain* He is Padma Shri and Padma Bhushan Pride of India Legend. No one can beat him in Tabla. We love him Salute to Ustad Zakir Hussain

Zakir Hussain Sir.. Our Pride.... love From Assam.... North East India

Fun fact: Metallica are ardent fans of Zakir Hussain. Had the opportunity of interviewing them when they were touring India and upon hearing the name "Zakir Hussain", Robert Trujillo said, "Zakir Hussain! He's like 'Slayer' on steroids." :)

I'm the proudest Indian. He's the gem. Respect! 🙏

He is the one who took Tabla to a global level and recognised everywhere. He is at an unimaginable level. Tough to find adjectives. I had learnt tabla from the maestro Pandit Kumar Bose for 7 years from when I was 6 years old and then it got discontinued as I had to shift to somewhere else for my studies. But in these 7 years it feels like I couldn't even scratch the surface, which is true. Such a vast thing it is, people spend their lifetime and still don't go to a level. You can react to other Tabla maestros like Pandit Swapan Chaudhary, Pandit Anindo Chatterjee and ofcourse Guruji Pandit Kumar Bose. And even the guru of my guru Pandit Kisha Maharaj. I didn't specify any link because I wouldn't be able to judge and decide which one you guys should react to first.

Being an Indian haven't seen this master piece yet ...thank you so much !!

Since you have reacted to the Master of Tabla, please please please react to the Goddess of Sitar - Anoushka Shankar- voice of the moon. Please! ❤️

Thanos wouldn't dare to snap in front of Zakir 🤣

Who is here after Zakir Hussain’s interview by OSR

I have watched Zakir Hussain live in a charity concert in Bangalore back in 2006, and he was not the senior artist on the stage. The senior artist on that stage was Birju Maharaj, the Kathak dancer. And those two went on repeated jugalbandi (competition) or jam. It was mindblowing. The cameras would often zoom Zakir Hussain's fingers and Birju Maharaj's feet, and we would see them vanish into a blur for minutes at a time.

Woww what a reaction...love your reaction..thank you for reacting on tabla zakir hussain..recommended for long long time..❤❤❤

I think Kaushiki , her husband and her father were in the audience.. in the first row.. 😄

Ustad Zakir Hussain is an ace level percussionist. He has a mastery over 36 types of percussion instruments both Eastern and Western. He is a living Legend.

india has such instruments that world dont know about

Was waiting for a long time to react to the legend ... Zakir Hussain.... His father legendary Ustad Allah Rakha ... Loved your Reaction ... Excellent... 💕

'Waah Taj Boliye' Zakir Hussain was a child prodigy a legend. His father Ustad Allah Rakha was a level above Zakir and with Pandit Ravishankar they had introduced India music to Western world.

India is proud to have him... They are pillars of Indian music... It needs a lot of efforts... His entire life went away.

7:22 that's what she said

You can watch him live in San Diego in October 😊✌

Congratulations 🎉👏 korbin for baby

Maestro is padma shree & padma bhusan....one of the prestigious National award from Indian Government . LIVING LEGEND....by far.

Zhakir Hussain is legend of tabla .

My hands were paining to even hold my phone😂

Zakir Hussain is the son of Ustad Allah Rakha! There is a small bit of them performing together in “Baje Sargam” which is a National Integration song featuring some of the best artists during the 80’s and 90’s.

I need this type of finger for pubg game 😂😂.

He was a legend in his twenties and thirties at such a young age god's creation

he is the best tabla player in the world Right now zakir Hussain Indian jewel

I was present at that event... Ten years anniversary celebration of "SHRUTINANDAN- The Musical Kingdom"... That Event was held in Netaji Indore Stadium, Kolkata, in the year 2007... I was 14 that time... It will be an invaluable memory of my lifetime... Thanks a lottttt to both of you for this video ... 🙏

Korbin congratulations!!🎊 Edit: Also I was worried during the whole video that your eyes are gonna pop out😂😂

7:11 wah ustad wah

The tabla had hallucinations and had to undertake an MRI scan after this stage show...

Oh my freaking GOD, I'm ready to rest in piece now after hearing that tabla from Ustaad zakir Hussain..... You guys made my morning today... I was requested this long back.... Holly cow, amazing !!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🏼👍👍👍👍👍👍

You're now entering a wholesome world of Classical Music. Now research and review maestros of sitar, flute, santoor, tabla, rudraveena and sarangi minimum

4:24 I love that reaction by Rick...😂

There are different parts on the Tabla, each can be used to make different sounds... its like multiple permutations and combinations...

Never seen anyone so exhausted just by viewing a tabla video.

Imagine ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan + ustad Zakir Hussain together = beyond the world

People say it is practice ....I say it is meditation (saadhna) ... Great personality with great discipline and control.

Zakir Hussain.. He's a maestro, a legend ftom India.

This is ULTRA INSTINCT from THE GREAT ZAKIR HUSSAIN.. 😍

Plz look at his father collaborate with Pt. Ravi Shankar at the Woodstock festival in Montrey Bay! Some of the best tabla/sitar duo you might ever see...

Guess if he had used his fingers in a keyboard O my WORD

What rick said at 8:43 Was quite right actually Ustad Zakir Hussain does not even rehearses or pre plans his performances He was once asked "Sir what are u going to play for tomorrow's concert" He said that " Honestly I don't know, I'll listen to Harmonium on the day and just go with the flow"

Zakir hussain has mastered ultra instinct in tabla 🙏. Even his hands were not thinking.

sometimes I feel, I know nothing.... I have no skills at all... what I am doing with my life... just watching OSR ??? 😂😂

Best reaction..... "these are his fingers" lol

I been waiting for this 😍loved your reaction

Different with jaby and OSR is.. Osr reactions is mostly about learning and understanding india n its culture where jaby just doing reaction with hot girls..

USTAD Zakir Hussain. He also plays in his tabala - "a conversation bw Radha & Krishna" and also the sound of a "cannon firing".

zakir's father would not allow him to play cricket or any other sport for fear that he might injure his fingers. many such prodigies have said that their childhood was taken away from them in the name of upholding family tradition and they would not want their children to go through that. But they were clear that to reach such great heights that sacrifice was necessary.

Thanos will surrender if he sees Zakir Hussain's finger acrobatics LOL

Rick. He won a Grammy for his world drum project. Zakir Hussain accompanied Ravi Shankar

"Those were his fingers, man!" - Korbin Miles, 2019

When I looked at my fingers after this........ They said "We don't do that here"

Watch him live in upcoming concerts in USA..that will be great.. edit - forgot to mention this was the best reaction ever I have seen..

Omg, I just heard his name in my gk book and thought that what extraordinary in playing tabla.. But ,dammm his skills are on another level... Hats off.

Anyone else noticed ricks tattoo on hand apna time aayega 😀😁😀

This is an great ancient Indian art.

Mr. Zakir hussain a big big tabla player of India. He can play a rhythm in tabla of how helicopter sounds, how dears drink water, train, clouds, horse running, bullet fire etc......

When life gives you ZAKIR, Be HUSSAIN Not NAYAK What a legend!
