Christo F. Nel

Tabla player and teacher in Ekurhuleni

Hillcrest Music School
1986 to 2013

I've played tabla from 1986 to 2013, mostly in pubs, churches, weddings and anywhere else that would have me. These days I also teach. My favorite gigs are the small ones where somebody cries a little in the third row.
