In this reflective episode of Tabla Beyond Borders with Ritesh Das, we welcome Isabelle Delaney from Montreal, a gifted percussionist whose journey with tabla and congas offers profound insights into life and balance. Through Ritesh's teaching philosophy—rooted in ear training and recitation—Isabelle discovered not only rhythm but also a deeper sense of harmony in her musical and personal life.
Together, they explore how the principles of focus, balance, and melodic expression transcend instruments and apply universally—whether you’re a musician, a professional, or simply seeking purpose. Isabelle also shares how her children inspired her to reconnect with her passion for music and how rhythm serves as a bridge between cultures, ideas, and even life’s challenges.
This soulful conversation reminds us that life, like music, is a rhythm to embrace, a balance to maintain, and a melody to cherish
