We are dedicated to exploring the music and culture of the world, with a particular focus on songs of freedom, struggle and transcendence.

"It is the process of music making that is valued as much as, and sometimes more than, the finished product. The value of music is, I believe, to be found in terms of the human experiences involved in it's creation." John Blacking in "How Musical is Man?" |
