Concertzender Live

Have you ever heard music from Central Asia? We have, and we highly recommend it!

 

Central Asia consists of four Turkish-speaking countries and one Persian-speaking country. The music of these countries is recognisably oriental but cannot be classified as something we already know. It is not Arabo-Persian, not Indian and certainly not Chinese. They are primarily simple songs rooted in the nomadic culture these people once had. Sometimes they are plaintive, sometimes highly danceable. It is actual folk music; stylisation does not factor into it. Modern influences sometimes do because these people don’t live under a rock either.

For this program, we go to the region’s south, where the vast steppes give way to high mountains. From Kyrgyzstan, we hear the Djunushov brothers and singer Salamat Sadykova. These are two big stars! That they performed together in Amsterdam was an exceptional occasion. From Tajikistan – that one Persian-speaking country in the region – comes the Alayev Family. This family act brings music with Western influences but always in the spirit of tradition. A drum kit and an accordion cannot disguise the fact that this music is entirely its own and comes from a unique, unknown part of the world!
