Background: In this era of cookie-cutter, synthetic sounds that can be generated by virtually anyone and everyone, it’s almost impossible to make music that can be instantly recognized as unique and incomparable. To have that music revealed as both groundbreaking and accessible to all is an even rarer occurrence.

Banjo legend Béla Fleck, tabla genius Zakir Hussain and double-bass master Edgar Meyer, internationally-renowned virtuosi and composers, have achieved that pinnacle with their newest music. The centerpiece and catalyst for the album is 'The Melody of Rhythm: Concerto', a gorgeously haunting, dynamic three-movement composition for banjo, double bass and tabla.

Recorded live with the Detroit Symphony Orchestra and conducted by Leonard Slatkin, the highly rhythmic work soars, melding Indian classical rhythms with American roots-derived melodies and big-sky orchestral horizons. The remaining trio pieces further explore a group dynamic that promises to gain in richness and nuance as they continue their travels throughout the world.
