L'Inde au Victoria Hall : le tabla de Zakir Hussain aux honneurs.

Thomas Muller, 21st January

L'Orchestre Symphonique d'Inde et Zakir Hussain ont donné au Victoria Hall un moment de rêverie orientale totalement envoûtant... Chapeau bas à cet ensemble si neuf et qui a prouvé un sens de la cohésion et de la musicalité qui n'a rien à envier aux ensembles européens.

When East meets West: the Symphony Orchestra of India in London Town
