Tabla maestro Zakir Hussain laid to rest in San Francisco

Deccan Chronicle  

New York: Zakir Hussain was laid to rest on Thursday at a San Francisco cemetery as a renowned percussionist. Hussain, one of the world's most accomplished percussionists, died at a San Francisco hospital on Monday due to complications arising from idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, a lung disease. In his career spanning six decades, the musician worked with several renowned international and Indian artists, but it was his 1973 musical project with English guitarist John McLaughlin, violinist L Shankar, and percussionist TH 'Vikku' Vinayakram that brought together Indian classical and elements of jazz in a fusion hitherto unknown. Sivamani after Hussain's death in a Facebook post said he would go to San Francisco to see him for the last time.
