Natthu
Khan was one of the most important tabla players
of the early 20th century, and a key member of the Delhi tabla
gharana. I discuss his playing in general and this peshkar in
particular in an online article called Natthu
Khan and the Delhi Peshkar. I
also discuss the Delhi lineage in detail in another online article
called Genealogical
musings: a brief discussion of the Delhi tabla gharana.
