Sunday Night World Music: Banda Magda, “Trata”
This band is so great. I’ve been watching all their videos on YouTube this weekend and they’re all incredibly unique, beautifully arranged and performed. Check out the hammered dulcimer and oud in this one. Amazing.
From the DVD “Yerakina” released September 23rd, 2014 on GroundUP Music.
