This live recording captures a brilliant interplay between ║▀█ █▀║ Chaurasia and tabla maestro Zakir Hussain. Rag "Malkauns" is a ║▀█ █▀║ composition especially conducive to midnight occasions. ║▀█ █▀║ ║▀█ █▀║ Hariprasad Chaurasia ║▀█ █▀║ ║▀█ █▀║ With the great wealth of musical dynasties in the Indian classical ║▀█ █▀║ tradition, one might expect to find a great line of musicians in the ║▀█ █▀║ genealogy of Hariprasad Chaurasia, the virtuoso of the bansuri (bamboo ║▀█ █▀║ flute.) However, instead of being a musician, his father was a famous ║▀█ █▀║ wrestler and had early hopes that his son might continue in his ║▀█ █▀║ footsteps. The younger Chaurasia had an early love of music, however, ║▀█ █▀║ and by the age of 15 was taking his first steps toward a lifetime as a ║▀█ █▀║ performer by studying classical voice with Pandit Raja Ram of Benares. ║▀█ █▀║ Soon after, he heard a flute recital by Pandit Bholanath and was so ║▀█ █▀║ impressed he changed his focus to studying the flute. When he was just ║▀█ █▀║ 19, he got a job playing for All India Radio, Cuttack, Orissa, and ║▀█ █▀║ within five years he was transferred to their headquarters in Bombay. ║▀█ █▀║ There he got the additional exposure of performing in one of India's ║▀█ █▀║ cultural centers and also studied with Shrimati Annapurna Devi, ║▀█ █▀║ daughter of Ustaad Allauddin Khan of the Maihar School of Music. She ║▀█ █▀║ helped him achieve the creative apex of his career, developing a style ║▀█ █▀║ that was both respectful of tradition, yet full of innovation. Over a ║▀█ █▀║ lifetime of performances, Chaurasia became one of India's ║▀█ █▀║ most-respected classical musicians, earning several awards, including ║▀█ █▀║ the National Award of the Sangeet Natak Academy, which he won in 1984. ║▀█ █▀║ In 1992, he was awarded the Padma Bhushan and the Konarak Samman and ║▀█ █▀║ in 1994, he was bestowed the Yash Bharati Sanman. Chaurasia also ║▀█ █▀║ collaborated with several western musicians late in his career, ║▀█ █▀║ including John McLaughlin and Jan Gabarek, as well as composing music ║▀█ █▀║ for a number of Indian films. ║▀█ █▀║ ║▀█ █▀║ - Stacia Proefrock, www.allmusic.com ║▀█ █▀║ ║▀█ █▀║ Zakir Hussain ║▀█ █▀║ ║▀█ █▀║ The tradition of Indian percussion has been revolutionalized by tabla ║▀█ █▀║ player Zakir Hussain. The son of Ustad Allah Rakha, the long time ║▀█ █▀║ collaborator of Ravi Shankar, Hussain has inherited his father's quest ║▀█ █▀║ for bringing the music of India to the international stage. His ║▀█ █▀║ recording credits include albums with George Harrison, Joe Henderson, ║▀█ █▀║ Van Morrison, Jack Bruce, Tito Puente, Pharoah Saunders, Billy Cobham, ║▀█ █▀║ the Hong Kong Symphony and the New Orleans Symphony. His work with ║▀█ █▀║ Mickey Hart of The Grateful Dead have included performances and albums ║▀█ █▀║ with the Diga Rhythm Band and Planet Drum. Hussain joined with British ║▀█ █▀║ guitarist John McLaughlin and Indian violinist L. Shankar to form the ║▀█ █▀║ east-meets-west supergroup, Shakti, in 1975. Although the group ║▀█ █▀║ disbanded in 1978, they reunited to tour as Remember Shakti in 1998. ║▀█ █▀║ Hussain has been equally successful as a bandleader. During the 1980s, ║▀█ █▀║ he toured with Zakir Hussain's Rhythm Experience. His debut solo ║▀█ █▀║ album, Making Music, released in 1987, was called "one of the most ║▀█ █▀║ inspired East-West fusion albums ever recorded". In 1992, Hussain ║▀█ █▀║ launched a record label, Monument Records, that focused on Indian ║▀█ █▀║ music. A lengthy list of awards have been bestowed upon Hussain ║▀█ █▀║ throughout his career. In 1988, he became the youngest percussionist ║▀█ █▀║ to be awarded the title "Padma Shri" by the Indian government. Two ║▀█ █▀║ years later, he recieved the Indo-Ameican award in tribute to his ║▀█ █▀║ contributions to furthering relations between the United States and ║▀█ █▀║ India. Planet Drum, an album co-produced with Hart in 1992, received a ║▀█ █▀║ Grammy for "best world music album", a NARM Indie Best Seller award ║▀█ █▀║ and won the Downbeat Critics Poll for "Best world music album". Still ║▀█ █▀║ a youngster when he began to attract attention with his virtuosic ║▀█ █▀║ playing, Hussain began his musical career at the age of seven and was ║▀█ █▀║ touring by the age of twelve. In 1970, he made his American debut as ║▀█ █▀║ accompanist for Ravi Shankar. Three years later, he became the leader ║▀█ █▀║ of the Tal Vadya Rhythm Band. The group subsequently evolved into the ║▀█ █▀║ Diga Rhythm Band. In 1976, the band collaborated on a self-titled ║▀█ █▀║ album with Mickey Hart. Hussain has performed on the soundtracks of ║▀█ █▀║ numerous films including Apocalypse Now!, In Custody and Little ║▀█ █▀║ Buddha. At the 1983 Cannes Film Festival, he was nominated for an ║▀█ █▀║ award as composer and music director of the film, Heat And Dust. ║▀█ █▀║ ║▀█ █▀║ - Craig Harris, www.allmusic.com ║▀█ █▀║ ║▀█ █▀║ ┌══════════════════════════════[ Tracklist ]═════════════════════════════┐ ║▀█ █▀║ : : ║▀█ █▀║ 01.
