If you’re planning to go to Sunday’s world music concert by tabla master Zakir Hussain and sitar player Niladri Kumar at Green Music Center, you’re in for a extra treat.

Mickey Hart, Grateful Dead drummer and west Sonoma County resident, will join them onstage for the show at 3 p.m. in the center’s Weill Hall on the Sonoma State Unversity campus in Rohnert Park.

Tickets for Sunday’s performance are still available, starting at $35, at 866-955-6040 or gmc.sonoma.edu.

Hart performed with Hussein and Kumer in a sold-out show last Wednesday at UC Berkeley’s Zellerbach Hall. Hussain contributed to Hart’s 1991 album “Planet Drum.” The two percussionists also worked together in the Global Drum Project.
