#3477: Music With Folk Roots
Listen to ensemble pieces which incorporate or draw from the folk music of several different parts of the world on this New Sounds program.  There’s music by the Alaev Family band from Tajikistan collaborating with Israeli musician Tamir Muskat from the band Balkan Beat Box.  Also, hear music that simulates the sound of Norwegian folk fiddling. It’s the work of Princeton University professor Dan Trueman, founder of the Princeton Laptop Orchestra and a Norwegian hardanger fiddle specialist together with So Percussion.
Then, Nordic klezmer/folk band Afenginn take what they need from other parts of the world and their own to create a (their words) "Bastard Ethno" music. Plus, Ale Møller brings in the Norwegian form of bagpipe, along with the traditional Norwegian willow-bark flute, in his latest, a collaboration with the Bohuslän Big Band. All that, and more.
