A standout artist of his generation, tabla virtuoso Salar Nader is recognized as a global ambassador weaving South Asian arts into the musical traditions of his Afghanistan heritage. A percussionist, composer, and producer, Salar studied under Ustad Zakir Hussain since the age of seven. Nader scored the original stage adaptation of Khaled Hosseini’s best-selling novel “The Kite Runner,” which had a groundbreaking run on Broadway in 2022 and national tour in 2024. In early 2025, Salar premiered and toured Zakir Hussain’s “Murmurs in Time” with Third Coast Percussion, for whom the piece was written. Salar continues his dedication to community engagement, workshops, and cross-cultural understanding.
