Hosted by Dennis Darrah.
Today we have a presentation of Classical Afghanistan music which has a similar structure to North Indian Classical with similar instruments, in this case the Hammered Dulcimer (Santur) and Afghan Lute (Rubab) which is related to the Sarod of India.
Music from around the world is featured. Bringing the audience into the realm of other cultures through music, hopefully expanding empathy for the “other,” and recognizing that “other” in ourselves. From Dennis Darrah at WGDR, Goddard College Plainfield, VT. wgdr.org/.
