Dildar Hussain

Dildar Hussain (born 1957) is a percussionist Tabla player.[1] He is known for being the tabla player for Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. His first performance was in India in 1969. Ustad Dildar now carries the tradition on with his sons. His eldest leading the party Abrar and his youngest Israr sitting in the seat, like his father as tabla player. Ustad Dildar does not play the traditional tabla that can be seen in Hindustani classical music but instead plays a combination of "jori" as the treble, and "dhamma" as the bass to create a deeper, warmer sound than the modern tabla set creates. This style created with the intention to carry sound acoustically.
