Link to the Show / Show NotesWhen I met ethnomusicologist Bob Cohen he not only told of how he had unearthed nearly lost melodies in far away lands, he also let me listen to them.
Bob's been resuscitating the musical traditions of the Carpathian Basin for years now. Among other projects, he and his band Di Naye Kapelye play many of the dusty old tunes he has happened upon in his travels.
Bob's band has just released its latest recording called "Traktorist" - its a great way to chill out after a hard day tilling out in the fields. Seriously, check it out on the Di Naye Kapelye website which we're linking to on Budacast.
