Скачать или смотреть A Hidden Culture (Music Series) - Tim Meyen & Pip Thompson from Super Rats - Romanian Lautari Music

This interview features Tim Meyen and Pip Thompson from Super Rats - discussing Romanian (Roma) lautari music, the complexities of learning traditional music from different cultures, and the surprising merits of the humble lemon crisp biscuit.

Super Rats is a pun. It sounds like the Romanian word supărați, meaning “annoyed ones”.

'Lautari’ music comes from the backstreets of Bucharest, featuring (here) the 145-string cimbalom, with violin, accordion and bass.
