May 17, 2012 – Many things have been lost in Afghanistan over the course of a decade of war, but traditional music is not one of them. That is thanks in part to a group of people working to preserve it at the Fowler Museum.
The museum holds a monthly world music event in conjunction with existing exhibits, and April was the month to showcase the sounds of Afghanistan.
The event featured Afghan-American musician Ariana Delawari, who has been traveling back and forth between Afghanistan and Los Angeles for a decade.
