Cambodia's Traditional Music and Art

Since the Khmer Rouge genocide of the 1970s, Cambodia has been defined by war and tragic loss. In 2009, American artist and educator, Dan Schwarzlose, traveled throughout Cambodia and filmed, edited and produced this video to honor Cambodia's aging master artists and their young proteges who will lead an inspired renaissance of Khmer music and art.

@koyaustralia That's his accent. He's only pretending to be himself.

Excellent work, Arn. Khmer future generations will greatly appreciate your visions and hard work.

To say i’m astonished by the quality performance of these musicians is to put it mildly. Arn is a ROLE MODEL, he lived in America, see The Flute Player PBS documentary, thus his American accent. Thanks for sharing this amazing video!

Im sorry I dont like his English sound like he try to be American accent I would rather listen to Khmer or English with khmer accent.
