Musical Treasures of the Bukharian Jewish Community

A seven CD box-set with book of music and lyrics. This remarkable collection represents a thorough overview of the religious and folk music of the Bukharian Jewish Community, once based in Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and elsewhere in Central Asia. Collected by Ezra Malakov, an accomplished musician and performer from Uzbekistan, this box-set is a delightful way to introduce music lovers, both young and old, to the musical traditions of Central Asia. It is the perfect accompaniment to learning units on folk music, world music, the Silk Road, Central Asia, the successor states to the Soviet Union, and world religion. Listen, Learn, and Enjoy!
