#825: Vaults: Trilok Gurtu

New Sounds | May 24, 2010
Our New Sounds From the Vaults series wraps up tonight, after our week of banging and crashing with favorite percussionists. For this show, we revisit a 1992 conversation with Indian tabla master and drummer Trilok Gurtu, where he introduces music from a collaborative project with Jan Garbarek and Nana Vasconcelos. Also, hear Indian classical music featuring Zakir Hussain, and Raja Chatrapati Singh.
