15 World Music Classics

Part of Arhoolie’s “American Masters” series, this compilation features 15 examples of world music recorded in the United States. Ranging from Europe (Polish, Ukrainian, Greek, and Klezmer music), Afghanistan, Ethiopia, the Americas (Central, and South America and the Caribbean), and the Pacific Ocean (Hawaiian), the music displays the textured sounds of each of the different cultures represented by the collection. The liner notes provide each track’s country of origin and original album.
