Third Coast Percussion with Salar Nader
February 21 @ 7:30 pm
$20 – $60
PRE-CONCERT ARTIST TALK
Join us at 6:30 pm for a pre-performance discussion with David Skidmore of Third Coast Percussion and tabla virtuoso Salar Nader moderated by VPM Music Classical Host Mike Goldberg.
Murmurs in Time, a major new work composed by the late tabla master Zakir Hussain, blends the sounds of tabla with classically trained percussion ensemble Third Coast Percussion. Modlin Center for the Arts is the lead commissioner for the Murmurs in Time, in celebration of the 20th anniversary of Third Coast Percussion. Modlin is honored to host the world premiere of this work.
Modlin Center is the first stop on the five-city tour originally planned with Hussain as a performer. Following his sudden passing in December 2024, it was decided that the tour will go forward as a tribute to Hussain with the blessing of his family. Tabla virtuoso Salar Nader, a longtime student and disciple of Hussain, will perform with Third Coast Percussion in his place.
