My Story

Namaskar. I’m Yashwant Vaishnav, tabla is my saathi (companion) from Mumbai. For me, it’s not just an instrument – it’s my pooja (worship), my daily routine. My Guruji, Pt. Yogesh Samsi ji, Ustad Zakir Hussain ji… their blessings, I carry close. Music for me is sharing – jamming with my brothers in Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore, even Abu Dhabi, it’s all magic. Audience ki energy (energy from the audience) – that’s what keeps me going. Hope we meet at a concert soon!

My Work

Tabla Solo & Accompaniment - I play traditional tabla solo, and also accompany Indian classical music – vocals, sitar, santoor, sarod, veena, and more.

Collaborative Performances - I love creating magic on stage with other musicians, whether it’s a classical concert or a fresh album launch.

Tabla Classes & Workshops - I teach tabla workshops for beginners and serious students. If you’re dedicated, reach out for classes.

Traditional & Upaj Style - My playing follows the old masters, with a focus on improvisational upaj compositions and traditional pieces.
