Tanbur Red Rhythms

The traditional melodies of the tanbur take over the streets of Tajikistan in festivals and traditional ceremonies, reviving the ancient splendor of the Silk Road. As an homage to the classic rhythms that often accompany the history of these prosperous lands, artisan Kodir Egamov handcrafts a charming pine and birch wood figurine portraying a lady in traditional red garments, playing the elegant sound of the tanbur.
