Talavya
BRETT CAMPBELL
8 pm Friday, April 22., Friday April 22 | $5-$25.
Scottish Rite Center 1512 SW Morrison St.
The tabla has enjoyed a resurgence beyond its classical roots, thanks to its use by DJs and electronic music artists like Talvin Singh and popularizers like the Bay Area's teacher/wizard Zakir Hussain. The torrid young tablawallahs in this quartet (formerly called Tabla Ecstasy) demonstrates that the versatile Indian percussion instrument is capable of so much variety and expressivity, that it needs no accompanying instrumentation beyond harmonium. The exciting percussion foursome will perform original compositions based in the classical Hindustani rhythmic cycles, and the show, presented by Kalakendra, includes Korean-born dancer, Jin, who’s one of the few female tabla virtuosos.
