Detailed Description
OUT OF PRINT...PLEASE INQUIRE BECAUSE WE CAN SOMETIMES LOCATE USED OR CUTOUT COPIES...PRICE SUBJECT TO CHANGE

Laotian folk music is in a category of its own, remaining outside the mainstream of Hindu culture and melodic percussion music typical in Southeast Asia. The lam is an improvised alternating song, the dominant musical form in Laos, while the khene, a reed pipe mouth organ, is the national instrument. Authoritative bilingual notes describe folk culture, its music and the performers who here represent a great and vanishing art of song. 6 performances.
