Gypsy Voices: Music of Passion, Resilience & Joy

This week Rhythm Planet features music from a new book by music historian Donald Cohen, Gypsy Voices: Songs from the Romani Soul. The new volume explores the Roma diaspora throughout Eastern Europe, Russia, and the Balkans, featuring a 21-track cd, song transcriptions and translations, lyrics, and photographs. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the joyful, passionate music of an often maligned and misunderstood culture.
