Niladri Kumaar (Sitar/Zitar) - The Space Between The Notes

Sitarist Niladri Kumaar has been described as a maverick musician and composer, a game changer, and a powerful exponent of Indian Classical Music. Niladri was a frequent collaborator with the late Ustad Zakir Hussain. Their sitar-tabla duo was one of the most popular and prominent collaborations. Space Between the Notes is an extraordinary recording of a live concert of these two maestros in Mumbai, India —releasing later this year — as their only recorded performance together. Honoring the musical tradition they come from and that brought them together, Niladri Kumaar continues to expand the reach of Indian Music and brings a specially curated 2026–2027 tour, with his Sitar, Zitar, and an ensemble of Indian and American musicians. Joining Niladri Kumaar on stage for this evocative journey are Satyajit Talwalkar (tabla), Charlie Lindner (keys), and Dèmitrio Albano (drums).
