Music of Uzbekistan on CD

Uzbekistan was the half-way point of the fabled Silk Road from the Mediterranean to Xian in China. The music, which was recorded in 1970 in Tashkent by ethnomusicologist Deben Bhattacharya, recalls the ancient oriental beauty and mystery. Traditional instruments: chang (dulcimer), rubab (lute), dutar (lute), ney (flute), doira (frame drum) and more.
