Middle East \/ Various Music CD","description":"\u003cp\u003eReleased in 1956, this album focuses on three republics of the former Soviet Union, all now independent countries: Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, and Tajikistan. Extending from Turkey all the way to Tibet and China, these diverse regions nevertheless have a unique character that, according to ethnomusicologist Henry Cowell, \"differentiates their music from that of any other part of the world.\" He describes the music as containing an \"incisive fervor and intensity with practically no let down from beginning to end, both in singing and playing.\" Songs are performed by traditional musicians who have learned their repertoire from older masters-without musical notation. Nevertheless, Cowell offers his own notated analysis in the liner notes to the album, along with translated lyrics and detailed descriptions of featured instruments.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKiurd Shakhnaz and Tesnif\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Daghlar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApipa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTajik Love Song\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLezginka\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmu\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAzerbaijanian Popular Dance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDombara\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 093070691629\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Folkways Records\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.30.12\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Broadtime","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42112160104523,"sku":"128390","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/7223\/1499\/files\/1506372.jpg?v=1770185111","url":"https:\/\/rockbandmerch.com\/products\/folk-music-of-the-ssr-middle-east-folk-s-s-r-middle-east-various-cd","provider":"Rock Band Merch","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
