Azure Carter, voice, songs
Alan Sondheim, sarangi, Afghan sarinda (suroz)

This is the kind of work/music I do with my partner Azure; the songs are hers from my texts, which she arranges. They're not happy, but the music, and the world it entails, is something I can inhabit; even practicing the instruments (which are difficult ones) give me some peace. It doesn't last, but it's present for a while. - 

If you have any practices, that do the same for you, please do share them, and thanks -

Alan
