Legendary Tabla Virtuoso Zakir Hussain Passes Away at 73

The tabla has fallen silent as Ustad Zakir Hussain, the legendary Indian percussionist renowned for his ‘dancing fingers,’ passed away at the age of 73 in a San Francisco hospital on Monday. According to a statement from his family, the tabla maestro succumbed to complications arising from a chronic lung disease. “He leaves behind an extraordinary legacy cherished by countless music lovers around the globe, with an influence that will resonate for generations to come,” the family expressed.

Hussain had been hospitalized for the past two weeks and was moved to the intensive care unit (ICU) when his condition worsened. His sister, Khurshid Aulia, shared that the music icon passed away “very peacefully.”

The eldest son of the legendary tabla virtuoso Ustad Alla Rakha, Zakir Hussain was a child prodigy who began his professional journey at the age of 12, accompanying celebrated Indian classical musicians. By 18, he was touring internationally, captivating audiences with his masterful accompaniment, breathtaking solo performances, and innovative collaborations with musicians from around the world. These efforts not only brought global recognition to the tabla but also elevated its status as a prominent instrument in both Indian and world music.

Zakir Hussain, widely regarded as the preeminent classical tabla virtuoso of our time, has earned global acclaim both as a master percussionist and as one of the most esteemed and influential musicians of his generation. As the foremost disciple of his father, the legendary Ustad Allarakha, Zakir’s musical journey began as a child prodigy. By the age of twelve, he was performing professionally with India’s most renowned classical artists, and by eighteen, he was captivating international audiences with his skill. His exceptional talent as a soloist, accompanist, and collaborator — particularly his efforts to bridge North and South Indian musical traditions — has elevated the tabla to unprecedented prominence, earning widespread recognition for the instrument both in India and across the globe.

Hailed as a key architect of the contemporary world music movement, Zakir has left an indelible mark through groundbreaking collaborations. These include Shakti and Remember Shakti, Masters of Percussion, Planet Drum and Global Drum Project with Mickey Hart, Tabla Beat Science, Sangam with Charles Lloyd and Eric Harland, CrossCurrents with Dave Holland and Chris Potter, a trio with Béla Fleck and Edgar Meyer, and recent projects with Herbie Hancock.

As a composer, Zakir has created music for numerous films and major productions. He has also composed three concertos, including the groundbreaking Concerto for Tabla and Orchestra, the first of its kind. This work premiered with the Symphony Orchestra of India in 2015 and was subsequently performed in Europe, the UK, and the USA by the National Symphony Orchestra at the Kennedy Center.

Zakir’s career is decorated with countless accolades. A Grammy winner, he holds honors such as the Padma Vibhushan, the Sangeet Natak Akademi Award, the USA’s National Heritage Fellowship, and France’s Officier des Arts et des Lettres. He has been consistently recognized as “Best Percussionist” by Downbeat Critics’ Poll and Modern Drummer Reader’s Poll. Among his other distinctions are the Antonio Carlos Jobim Award from the Montreal Jazz Festival in 2018, several honorary doctorates, and his 2019 appointment as a Sangeet Natak Akademi Fellow, a prestigious lifetime honor limited to just 40 artists at any given time. In 2022, Zakir received the Kyoto Prize in Arts and Philosophy for his profound contributions to the cultural and spiritual enrichment of humanity. At the 66th Annual Grammy Awards in 2024, he became the first Indian musician to win three Grammys in a single year, including Best Global Music Album, Best Global Music Performance, and Best Contemporary Instrumental Album.

As an educator, Zakir has made significant contributions by conducting workshops, lectures, and residencies at institutions like Princeton University, Stanford University, and UC Berkeley, where he served as Regents Lecturer. His annual workshop in the San Francisco Bay Area has been a cornerstone for serious tabla students for over 30 years. He also founded Moment Records, an independent label dedicated to preserving live recordings of Indian classical and world music. Zakir was the resident artistic director at SFJAZZ from 2013 to 2016, and in 2017, he received their Lifetime Achievement Award for his unparalleled contributions to music.
