曾在「音樂之都」維也納接受嚴格訓練的梅塔(Zubin Mehta)為猶太裔的印度指揮家。1936年4月29日出生於印度孟買的音樂世家;父親是一位出色的小提琴手、小提琴教師和指揮家、孟買交響樂團弦樂四重奏團的創始人。7歲時小梅塔就接受正規的小提琴和鋼琴教育。作為父親的學生,16歲時便已指揮了孟買交響樂團。18歲時進入維也納音樂院學習鋼琴與作曲。在漢斯·斯瓦洛夫斯基的指導下完成指揮學業。
1958年梅塔自利物浦國際指揮大賽上勝出。20餘歲的他便已指揮過維也納愛樂管弦樂團與柏林愛樂管弦樂團。曾獲得美國坦格塢指揮大賽的第二名(第一名是阿巴多)。此時他認識了波士頓交響樂團的指揮查爾斯·孟許(Charles Munch),後者對梅塔影響深遠。1960年第一次與紐約愛樂、費城樂團和蒙特利爾交響樂團合作,1962-1966年任蒙特利爾交響樂團的音樂總監。
1962-1978年任洛杉磯愛樂樂團音樂總監。1969年成為了以色列愛樂樂團的音樂顧問,1977年升為首席指揮,1981年任終身音樂總監。1978年他成為紐約愛樂的音樂總監,合作關係歷時13年。1998年起,擔任巴伐利亞國家歌劇院音樂總監,直至2006年卸下職務。2016年12月,以色列愛樂樂團宣布,梅塔將在2019年10月結束其音樂總監一職。2019年1月,洛杉磯愛樂樂團宣布,任命其為榮譽指揮。
梅塔的重要錄音不少,最知名的便是1990年三大男高音為世界盃足球賽決賽音樂會指揮,以及杜蘭朵公主於紫禁城的現場演出。此外,他數度與維也納愛樂數度合作新年音樂會,包含 1990、1995、1998、2002與2015。動人心弦的演出,皆為樂迷爭相收藏的珍品。
梅塔的指揮以華麗、充滿活力且強而有力聞名。職業生涯初期因對布魯克納、理查·史特勞斯、馬勒和弗朗茲·舒密特(Franz Schmidt)的大型交響音樂的優異詮釋而獲得讚譽。之後,對於各式作品皆有鑽研,展現獨到的觀點。這套專輯中,梅塔分別與紐約愛樂、柏林愛樂、以色列愛樂、維也納愛樂、洛杉磯愛樂,以及新愛樂管弦樂團合作,演出貝多芬、莫札特、布拉姆斯、李斯特、華格納、柴可夫斯基、布魯克納、馬勒、史特勞斯、荀白克、普羅可菲夫、拉赫曼尼諾夫、史特拉汶斯基、巴托克等作曲家的作品。而與其合作的音樂家包括小提琴家:史坦、祖克曼、宓多里(美島綠),鋼琴家:霍洛維茲、魯賓斯坦、吉利爾斯、巴倫波英、普萊亞、布朗夫曼,以及女高音卡芭葉等頂尖藝術家。
