Listen "SOAS Concert Series - Behind the Music: Music of the Caucasus"
Episode Synopsis
In the first of SOAS Radio's new coverage of the University's Concert Series, we talk to Stefan of the Sayat Nova Project to find out more about Music from the Caucasus.
In an area often thought as a border between Europe and Asia, we learn a little about the region's rich linguistic and cultural heritage. We learn about the Ashiq bards that travel through the diverse region, and how Monday's performer, Ashiq Nargile fits into that tradition.

1. MiqayelVoskanyan – Eshkhemet (Sayat Nova) – Intro music.
2. Yosi ben Yohai –Juhuro (Mugham sung by a mountain Jew)
