Traditional Afghan music4
This disc, from a French label, is a brief compendium of traditional Afghan music, including the zither and other local stringed instruments, as well as the Indian tabla. Afghan classical music will remind the listener of the musics of Central Asia, India, Pakistan and even China, and harkens back to a time in which Afghanistan was a land of international commerce, culture and tribal religion. For those wishing to find out something about an Afghanistan that time has forgotten, this disc is a good choice.

Love to Afghanistan from New York City5
Wonderful, lyrical and gentle ancient music. A pure delight.

great music, liner notes lacking4
the recording quality is high, and this collection presents traditional acoustic music in a good light. None of the performers is identified, however, which is a disappointment to me as a radio programmer and student of world music.
