Penhville:
Hanging with Silapak Khmer Amatak . We’ve just finished our
annual cultural tour.
If you haven’t already, check out the Meik Sratum Exhibition going on
http://www.silapakkhmeramatak.org/meiksratum/
Upstairs we have the Cambodian Jazz project, and beats from SEAsia as they
refine Khmer rhyme.
Downstairs we often have visiting Koun Sethisak, a tenor trained
in Russia and quite possibly the only Western-style Cambodian tenor.

Sometimes the sounds all synchronize. It’s all good.
