Buster, a 13-year old furry Jack Russell Terrier, is an avid fan of Tabla for Two’s music. When we play the soulful ragas he loves to dig a nest in the sheepskin rug and go into a deep doggie trance.
Tabla for Two at DCAC
Last night Tabla for Two performed at DCAC to a sold out show. It was very exciting! With our dramatic 8 foot by 8 foot backdrop of the Tabla Sailing in the Nebula our instruments appeared to flow from the stage into deep space. The music absolutely matched the heavenly surroundings. It was far out!
We received a standing ovation and we are looking forward to performing there again soon.

Robin Williams understood music
You know what music is?
God’s little reminder that
there’s something else
besides us in this universe;
harmonic connection
between all living beings,
everywhere, even the stars.
— Robin Williams, August Rush (2007)
