Grammy winning musician hailed as a “creator of myths with Houdini-like skills” (The Sydney Morning Herald, Australia), Sandeep Das is a Grammy-winning Tabla
player and composer. A disciple of the legendary Pt, Kishan Maharaj ji of the Banaras Gharana, he debuted at the age of 17 with renowned Sitar maestro Pt. Ravi Shankar ji and went on to lead a prolific international career that now spans more than three decades. Das has performed with almost all of India’s great luminaries such as Ustad Amjad Ali Khan, Pandit Shivkumar Sharma, Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia, and the next generation of musicians like Pandit Rajan and Sajan Mishra, Ustad Shujaat Khan, and Pandit Vishwa Mohan Bhatt, among others, thus establishing himself as one of the leading Tabla virtuosos of his generation in India. Das also collaborates with top musicians and ensembles from across the globe such Yo-Yo Ma and the Silk Road Ensemble, with whom he has performed for the past 21 years, as well as Paquito D’Rivera, Bobby McFarin, and iconic orchestras like the New York Philharmonic, Boston Symphony, and Chicago Symphony, to name a few. Transcending Borders One Note at a Time, his most recent project, has been described as a “roadmap for irresistible aural adventures” (Downbeat Magazine, USA) and seeks to harness the power of music to create positive social change. Driven by a vision for a brighter future, Das is the founder of Harmony and Universality through Music (HUM), a nonprofit organization in India that has promoted global understanding through music performance and provided learning opportunities and scholarships for visually-impaired children with artistic potential since 2009. He is an active public speaker, and has presented at The New York Encounter, The EG Conference, TEDx events, and multiple university residencies. In 2015, he established Das Tabla School, where he currently trains musicians from 6+ countries both online and in-person in Boston, MA.
