Although the audio and video of this clip do not match up, this is an incredible performance. This Tabla solo is one of the better example i have seen of a drum creating a melody. Notice how 2:20 minutes in, he uses one hand to keep the melody going while he rests his other hand. Seconds after, he taps on the side of the drum and the pitch of the song gets higher. When he tunes the tabla, there is a much more noticeable change to the song than while tuning a drum in Western music, because the tabla is creating the foundation of the melody and beat.
