Sabir has progressed a long way in the world of tabla accompaniment, at times in the line of his father and at times in a separate entily.
At a programme of “Aritra” on 26th June 83 Sabir Khan salo tabla sparkled with vivacious sensation. His scintillating modulation of the Baya (left bowl) with his (be be) appears as if the galaxy of stars has been brought down on earth.
The whole night music conference was stolen by young Sabir Khan, wher he accompanied Bhudhaditya Mukherjee, Pdt. Hariprasad Chowrasia, Ustad Munawar Ali Khan, Pdt. Jasraj and Ustad Amjad Ali Khan.
