I sit in awe of Sanju Sahai. He’s an INCREDIBLE musician, but also such a humble and patient teacher. What a delight to learn something new from a master at work!
This is brilliant - I love the idea of having a spoken musical alphabet like that! Very clear teaching also.

Sanjujee is a great great tabla player
Sanju Sahai comes from a very prestigious Gharana of musicians particularly rhythm instruments. The fellow is very lucky tho have personal lesson from a Maestro. A wonderful treat for all music lovers.
I absolutely love watching musicians play together in the moment. It's as close to telepathy as we've ever achieved. Amazing Tabla and Viola.
That was a treat!And the Bach-tabla duet was wonderful indeed!
I really loved the sound of the two played together....viola and tabla...tabla is next on my learn to play list

How many instruments do you know now? And any advice on how to pick up a new instrument quickly for the first time?
I used to play the tabla when i was younger.....i got till level four. Anyone who is not exposed to some form of training with musical instrument at early age is missing out . Parents you owe it to your kids to get them trained.

tabla can be played even faster.. 32times the speed of the original kaida.
Sanju is a great guy. He taught me at SOAS.
Brilliant Sanju Sahai is always pure sattva. Only take a look at his actions, he never makes false, or unconfident movements
I find Sanju Sahai's playing to be utterly captivating.

He is a fascinating artist from a family with a very rich musical heritage...a tabla maestro in al sense of the word .. Pandit Sanju Sahai
Sanju Sahai is a great tabla player, who has inherited the ancient tradition of Banaras Gharana.... (located in Varanasi).
This is inspiring -- a wonderful addition to that Bach piece
Sanju Sahai is INCREDIBLE!!!!! OMGoodness.

Absolutely fascinating! And the ending with the marriage of Bach to tabla. Brilliant!
This so melodious created by three totally different musical instruments combined. I could never imagine Bach with tabla and tanpura...holy moly. This is amazing.
Both musicians' expressions while playing their instrument is really really magnificent and of topest notch
Amazing both are so talented. I love the blend of eastern and western music.
Wonderful video, you guys have the best channel on the internet! And the Tabla looks like a incredible insturment!

WHY Didn't THEY PICK A PERCUSSIONIST?! It would've made more sense! XD
@philharmonia_orchestra

Thank you for your feedback. We carefully pick who is featured in our videos and it can often be a lengthy process to find exactly the right fit. It's important that in this context the member of the orchestra is really keen to learn something new, and it was not deemed essential that we use a percussionist in this context. We do hope you enjoyed the film and will continue to follow our work.

I was very worried about the prospect of listening to Bach with Tabla accompaniment but, when it all began it was only but a sigh of relief. Even the drone of the tambura fits in quite nicely. I mischievously wonder if it would have been the same had not been Bach but something atonal like a Schoenberg. European 'dhun'-like melody with Indian percussion... sounded a lot like Dikshitar-esque 'nottuswaras'.

Hello! We don't have a full Instrument Guide on the sitar, but do check out our video with Craig Ogden in conversation with sitar player Roopa Panesar here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/fYCmqK-MicqTXaw.html
Fascinating instrument.
Could you please make one for the Recorder? As a professional recorder player and early music enthusiast, I would absolutely love that!
whoa. skip to the end and whoa
So what would you learn about the tabla today...? No clue in awe
13:38 - This part takes me back to the Duck Hunt theme music. (Five seconds into this video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/Y5yTmpuLY9audpM.html) I really enjoyed this video. While a violist is not a percussionist, Kramers' apparent knack for remembering a pattern without having to walk through it several times really helps the pacing of the video. And Sanju Sahai seems to be both an impressive player and a very good teacher.
Absolutely beautiful... Thank you.
Thank you for this. 🙌🏼❤️

Bach certainly does sound great with tabla! The piece that Gijs and Sanju perform is the 5th movement, 'Bourrée', from Bach's Suite for Cello No. 4 in E flat (BWV1010).
