“Simply the best at what they do… they’re world-class masters of the banjo, the bass fiddle and the tabla [who] conquered mere technical prowess long ago.” NPR
Three of the most limitless creators and composers in the history of music, Béla Fleck (banjo), Zakir Hussain (tabla) and Edgar Meyer (double bass) have each put forth an unprecedented array of projects that touch every geographical and stylistic corner of the musical world. Coming together as a trio of musical masters and genre-benders, these longtime friends and innovators create a fusion that is uniquely their own. With astonishing virtuosity and 20 Grammy Awards between them, Fleck, Hussain, and Meyer move with ease among the worlds of classical, bluegrass and North Indian music, crossing sonic borders in an alchemical evening of magic that must not be missed.
