AGA KHAN MUSIC INITIATIVE IN CENTRAL ASIA and
COLUMBIA UNIVERISTY ARTS INITIATIVE
present
MUSIC OF CENTRAL ASIA
Via Kabul: Central Asia Without Borders
Tuesday, March 21 at 8PM
The music of the Silk Route visits New York City with a concert of
virtuoso musicians who, while little known in the West, are re-
invigorating the ancient traditions of Central Asia's mountains and
princely courts with new performance styles, repertoire, and
techniques.
From Kyrgyzstan comes Tengir-Too, a seven-member ensemble whose
Jew's harps, fiddles, plucked instruments, and powerful voices
transmit the vibrant rhythms of nomadic life. The Academy of Maqam,
a young ensemble from Tajikistan, sets mystical, Sufi-inspired verse
to the lyrical melodies of Shashmaq⭼/span>, creating a spiritual art
music of great refinement and sublime beauty.
From Kabul to California, Homayun Sakhi is admired as the
outstanding Afghan rubab player of his generation, a charismatic
virtuoso who has pushed the limits of his instrument. With tabla
player Taryalai Hashimi, Sakhi plays music that is uniquely Afghan,
yet resonates strongly with the spirit of Indian raga.
Together, the three groups represent the striking combination of
ancient and contemporary music that crosses boundaries of geography
and culture, earthly pleasure, and spiritual contemplation.
Music of Central Asia is a co-production of the Aga Khan Music
Initiative in Central Asia, a program of the Aga Khan Trust for
Culture, and the Columbia University Arts Initiative www.cuarts.com
