Once major cultural centre of the empire Timouride (XV century), the fascinating medieval city of Herat in western Afghanistan, is famous for centuries for its artistic refinement. Le présent CD illustre la diversité de la musique vocale et instrumentale de la région d'Hérat et permet d'entendre différents instruments traditionnels : dutâr, chahârtâr sornâ et dohol, dâira, nai chapâni et robâ. This CD shows the diversity of vocal and instrumental music in the region of Herat and allows you to hear different traditional instruments: dutâr, chahârtâr sornâ and dohol, dâira, nai chapâni and robâ. Ces enregistrements exceptionnels ont été réalisés peu de temps avant l'éclatement de la guerre civile qui a bouleversé la vie des habitants de ce centre séculaire de la culture islamique. These exceptional recordings were made shortly before the outbreak of civil war that has disrupted the lives of the inhabitants of this old centre of Islamic culture.
