Second visit to Sindhology Audio Archives

April 13, 2015

This time, I got to check out the DVDs and CDs that had been gifted to the archive. Many were from the Indian Sindhi community. It was interesting to see a glimpse of Sindhi culture from India and around the world, but there was not much in the way of music that could be relevant to my film.All the real folk music I have seen is still very much here in Sindh. Things I have seen and listened to from Sindhis outside of Sindh tend to be pop and never up to the quality of what I see here, except for some folk musicians in Rajasthan and Gujrat who also sing Sindhi music.I just don't see the appeal of a lot of the watered down pop singers when you can support the real deal.Since the library collection consists mostly of audio cassettes and records, I need to buy a tape player as the institution does not have a working tape or record player apparently.Oh, the hoops...
