Within Nepali society, music forms an integral part of daily life and culture. From folk song performed in remote villages high in the majestic Himalayan mountains, to the rich and calming beat of the monastic chant; melody, harmony and hypnotic rhythm all combine to create the unique sound of Nepal’s music. This artistic heartbeat of Nepal also has a strong influence in The Brigade of Gurkhas where instrumental music, song and traditional dance are regularly performed at festivals, marriages, birth ceremonies and National events. This recording, performed on typical Nepalese instruments by musicians of The Band of The Brigade of Gurkhas, is a collection of such popular folk music.....Namaste
