Music from Bhutan

on BBC Radio 3

' Of the whole enormous area which was once the spirited domain of Tibetan culture and religion ... now only Bhutan seems to survive as the one resolute and self-contained representative of a fast disappearing civilisation.'
In the first of three talks JOHN LEVY presents recordings he made in 1971 of the awe-inspiring lamaist orchestras and chant and the contrastingly quiet singing of villagers.
