Music Reviews of Music of Central Asia Vol. 3: Art of the Afghan Rubāb
Music Review: Excellent
Rating: 5 Stars
The tabla player on this album is amazing. He outshines the rubabist, who is also awesome. This album is very Indian in sound. The rags and ghani? (little new to the Afghan music) chosen are of a more minor/dissonant nature than the Afghan music I've heard on popular Afghan websites. The instrument itself is related to sarod, but much more percussive due to frets. The tabla player steals the show though. His use of bhari/khali technique is flawless and easily readable. Clear use of the bayan (bass) drum, not just a blur of bols. But then he hits off these rolls and uses varying stresses and mixes with syncopation. Amazing. As good as Ali Ackbar Khan and his tablaist. An excellent buy!Music Review: One of a kind

Who played the instrument RABAB is so good, you can feel it in your heart, when you listen to it more and more carefuly, it will grab you heart, some times it will take me so away from this world, Sound of Rubab is so deep and full of joy and flavor.
I love this cd and i suggest to everyone that if they want to listen to a good, deep sound instrument of Afghanistan then listen to RABAB.

Homayun jaan and Toryala jaan are both exceptional musicians and performers, respectively. Living in NorCal, we have the extra advantage of seeing these two live in concert. Check out the "Little Kabul" area of Fremont, CA., especially during the Nowrouz "new year" (March 21st), where there are many concerts and activities going on, possibly a concert featuring Homayun and Toryala.
Cheers,

Homayun Sakhi is living proof that faith in God and faith in yourself still produce the highest results in man.
If you know Rubab music, then there is no question of getting this. He has developed the Rubab into it`s full potential unlike any other Rubab player in history.
Much love goes out to him!
