A percussionist at the top of the world, on the threshold of 60 years.The musical traditions of Eastern and Western worlds have always been closely linked to each other, through improvisation percussionist Trilok Gurtu. Since the advent of post-bop jazz music scene, the Gurtu’s mastery of the instrument has never gone unnoticed. In the States, the music critics of Downbeat magazine have named “best drummer” three times, proclaiming that “the world is his stage.” In Europe, Jazz Magazine and Straight No Chaser evaluated a very similar perspective, saying that “his music has a transcendental quality and remove the obstacles that lie between the Eastern and Western music”. This eclectic approach is the key to understanding his countless collaborations with some of the greatest musicians in the world.
