Episode 21 | Polina Dessiatnitchenko, Ethnomusicologist, Tar Player, and Mugham Enthusiast!

Polina Dessiatnitchenko (https://polinadessi.com) is a Ukrainian-Canadian ethnomusicologist and player of the 11-stringed tar, an archetypally Caucasian musical instrument typically used to accompany Azerbaijani mugham. In this unique edition of the Caspian Podcast Polina explains with demonstrations various musical motifs with which tar players build up the structure of that Unesco-listed form of very traditional yet partly improvised music. Polina also explains a little about the linkages between mugham and ghazal poetry and reveals that learning these art forms is an all-encompassing spiritual endeavour rather like becoming the devotee of a guru. To see Polina performing Shchedryk on a snow-covered Azerbaijani mountaintop, go to    • Shchedryk on Azerbaijani national instruments   Listen to the The Caspian Podcast on: 👂soundcloud: http://ow.ly/7eB650EzN0J 👂spotify: http://ow.ly/xneB50EzN0L 👂apple podcasts: http://ow.ly/NYql50EzN0K 👂google podcasts: http://ow.ly/EKv950EzN0N #TheCaspianPost #MarkElliott #PolinaDessiatnitchenko
