His mastery over the tabla is undeniably incredible. It really does frustrate me when people who proclaim to be lovers of classical music start criticising maestros and start to make illegitimate comparisons between Hindu and Muslim musicians. I do not possess a great amount of classical music knowledge, but I do no for a fact that music does not subscribe to any particular religion or creed...TBC
The real truth is that the greatest masters of classical music were mostly Muslims like Ustad Salamat Ali Khan, Ustad Amir Khan sahab, Ustad Amjad Ali Khan sahab and the unforgettable Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan sahab and Ustad Bade Ghulam Ali Khan Sahab etc. If look at hindus we only know the names of Pandit Bhimsen Joshi, Lata Mangeshkar, Koushiki Chakraborty, Pandit Ravi Shankar etc.
@@girirajsingh2999 Its just because you haven't dived deep into the real world of Hindustani Classical Music ...If so happend , you must have heard of many Legendary Names Like Pt . Bhishmdev Chatarji , Pt. D.V. Palushkar , Pt. mallikarjun Mansoor , Tapaswini Moghu Bai kurdikar , Gana Saraswati Kishori Amonkar , Gangu Bai Gangal ...And May Many Many More...So before making any lame statement, earn some knowledge .
No doubt muslim musicians contribution to the Indian classical is undeniable, but let’s not forget some of the non muslim maestros e.g. Pt. Vishnu Digambar Paluskar, Pt. Shankkarrao and his son Krishnarao Pandit, Pt. Omkarnath Thakur, Pt. Narayanrao Vyas, Pt. D.V. Paluskar, Kesarbai Kerkar, Pt. Bathkhande, Pt. Jasraj, Pt. Shivkumar Shankar, Pt. Hari Prasad Chaurasia, Sawai Gandharva, Gangubai Hangal to mention few..…..the list is long. Remember, music has no religion so just enjoy the good music and don’t divide it into Pakistani, Indian, muslim, hindu etc.
I love ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan ji and salamat Ali Khan ji. Dono ko sath dekh kar muje jo feel huwa wo main bata nahi sakta bohat acha laga. Thank you so much for share this video
OMG All legends together Ustad Tafoo Khan on tabla and Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Ustad Salamat Ali Khan and Parvaiz Mehdi in audience that is magical moment lucky people who were there ❤️❤️❤️
To all the haters about his style of tabla he is one of the greatest and will remain so. Someone likes it or not he created a completely different style of tabla which one can only dream of performing. All the amazing rhythm patterns in Pakistani songs and film music is because of him. True legend in tabla who started a new revolution. Wish he gets more students to spread this style world over. True legends sitting next to him in the audience.Thanks for this amazing upload.
Simply amazing. Too many people are caught up with the more "popular" players to appreciate his variations. Just the fact that two classical vocal greats are enjoying his performance should be enough evidence of his mastery. Well done Ustad Tafo saheb.
No doubt, ustad Tafoo is undisputed and extraordinarly a highest level Master among few Masters in the world as always having marvellous performance ever seen as a genius musician. واااااااہ واااااااااااہ کیا بات ہے، زبردست۔
do any other tabla player plays 10 finger style?? in pakistan or anywhere in the world?? Ustad Tafo Khan is a unique heritage, such musician are the blessings from the above. we are so lucky that watched him live.
Yes there was another tabla nawaaz of Pakistan Ustad Fariyaad Hussain Bhulli Khan, he also played 10 finger style but unfortunately passed away years ago
Ustad tafo khan speed is amazing look at the shot of the shoulders and his back when they do show it ull see a bulge that bulge is his back muscles fully developed which allows for that speed... all tabla players are aiming for that so that there speed can be immense....and pluz my ustad jee told me that these tihais of his are called Nokas.....meaning 9 times .....not like the regular three times
You are right harjass77. How an infant will understand Tafo. First of all, we should ignore these kind of comments as there is lobby among listeners who irritate others and try to make a breach in music.
When he speeds i would love to hear him recite his bols as well as playing. I am a tabla student for ten years and western drummer all my life. There is always a degree of separation from the hand and the mouth in tabla playing. Means very few players can recite exactly as they play and vice versa. The case is usually that players play faster than recite. I wonder what his speed of recitation is? Like or dislike is an opinion. Respect for his riyaz and god given talent though.
Wow Tafu is one of the best tabla and Tabla legendary players at the time and what he is doning with his Base hand ( right hand ) is fenomenal and 2 Legends of Qawali and Clasiical singers are listening... WOW thanks for uploading and great job .
Zakir Hussein plays every Gharana. That is why he is the best in the world. And when it comes to playing Punjab Gharana, Zakir Hussein and Tari Khan are the best
I don't know much what gharana he's playing, but looks like an experimental mix of Delhi and Lucknow. The technique is incredible, thumbs up for that little trick of two hands on the dayan on 2:05 to 2:07. Original and mind-blowing.
He plays dhere dhere in his every performance but with the changed position . To maintain the speed he has changed the position of The nikaaas . Ustad Shahbaz Hussain acknowledges him that " Tafo sahib ne mushkil bols ko Speed main Baja kr asani paida kr di hai " in some video he has played dhere dhere in original position but when he plays in speed he changes the position
Wash....Ustad Taffo Khan.....Zabardasssssstt The description is not correct....because the tabla starts in Ektaal and quickly goes into Dadra with Theme and then part Keharwa...theh little Jhap Taal....Dhrut Kai Rupak.... Teentaal in Dhruv Lei is mixed in between. It's anamalgam of various taals. Harmonium is in some sort of Lehra of some Raag. Beautifully performed by both Artists.

Ustad Tafoo Khan is great- and do listen to the great Pandit Anokhelal Mishra as he is equally mesmerising and a little more subtle.
It actually transcends all religious barriers, simply because SUR has a universal appeal. So people please!!! just appreciate and enjoy the music.
amazing hand speed and unique tihais..he is the best.

Legend playing
Ustad tafo khan speed is amazing look at the shot of the shoulders and his back when they do show it ull see a bulge that bulge is his back muscles fully developed which allows for that speed... all tabla players are aiming for that so that there speed can be immense....and pluz my ustad jee told me that these tihais of his are called Nokas.....meaning 9 times .....not like the regular three times
Yup. That tihai is called "nau-hakka"*
Actually his men a great artist in the world and his performance that's be a great
very very very good ustad Tafo I love your tabla playing... you are great...
Amazing❤
You are right harjass77. How an infant will understand Tafo. First of all, we should ignore these kind of comments as there is lobby among listeners who irritate others and try to make a breach in music.
Very mechanical. Lacks sweetness and creativity.
When he speeds i would love to hear him recite his bols as well as playing. I am a tabla student for ten years and western drummer all my life. There is always a degree of separation from the hand and the mouth in tabla playing. Means very few players can recite exactly as they play and vice versa.

Very Nice Tabla Played by Ustad Tafu Khan sb
Khatarnak tabla-player...
Wah, kya bat hai, ustad.
Wow Tafu is one of the best tabla and Tabla legendary players at the time and what he is doning with his Base hand ( right hand ) is fenomenal and 2 Legends of Qawali and Clasiical singers are listening... WOW thanks for uploading and great job .
Punjab garana ka ek he baap hai ustad tafu khan Saab
Wahh swad agya... Koi nahe ap k muqable ka..
Zakir Hussein plays every Gharana. That is why he is the best in the world.
And when it comes to playing Punjab Gharana, Zakir Hussein and Tari Khan are the best
King Of Tabla One N Only Ustad Tafu KHAN sahab
I don't know much what gharana he's playing, but looks like an experimental mix of Delhi and Lucknow. The technique is incredible, thumbs up for that little trick of two hands on the dayan on 2:05 to 2:07. Original and mind-blowing.
Punjab Gharana
Kya baat hai usdat wah wah
The speed at 6:00 is nowadays impossible only legends could do it
I'm listening him since 2012,but have you ever seen Dhere Dhere bol he played?I think he has limited bols, but he is very clear in these bols.
He plays dhere dhere in his every performance but with the changed position . To maintain the speed he has changed the position of The nikaaas . Ustad Shahbaz Hussain acknowledges him that " Tafo sahib ne mushkil bols ko Speed main Baja kr asani paida kr di hai " in some video he has played dhere dhere in original position but when he plays in speed he changes the position
Bht Kam paida hoty hyn esey insan Pakistan zindabad

Just like .............
Beyond description.
Legendary ❤️
واہ کیا کمال
Lajawab, koi saani nahi
kya baat hai bhai
all his solos sound alike.
Wash....Ustad Taffo Khan.....Zabardasssssstt
The description is not correct....because the tabla starts in Ektaal and quickly goes into Dadra with Theme and then part Keharwa...theh little Jhap Taal....Dhrut Kai Rupak....
Teentaal in Dhruv Lei is mixed in between. It's anamalgam of various taals. Harmonium is in some sort of Lehra of some Raag. Beautifully performed by both Artists.
The human brain coupled with the human hand are truly the instruments of the gods.
Tafo khan sb kei keya baat ha
Khan sab ji tose jaan khadlie wha ji wha
