This is the third and last video of a shorter children version of the "Musical instruments of the Oriental world" concert that me and my dear old friend and mentor Louis Soret used to play all over France and Belgium in the early 80s. We travelled in a van with a sound system and 42 oriental musical instruments from Morocco to China, including some instruments that medival Europe adopted from the East (I remember that I had 116 strings to tune before each concert) and we played 15 different pieces of traditional music from all those different countries, after explaining of course the origin, the characteristics and playing techniques of each instruments (not included in this editing). This last video presents instruments and music from India, China, as well as some instruments that Medieval Europe had inherited from the East.
Sorry for the quality of the video but at that time we didn't have the HD yet, only some crude, perishable VHS cassettes, so...
We wish you a pleasant musical journey and if you like it please don't forget to send a postcard to : anellocapuano@yahoo.fr. For more music and informations, you may also want to visit : www.anello-capuano.com.
So here you are. Glad you like it. Enjoy.
