Name: Strangers In The Night by SoSaLa
Duration: 2 min 11 s
Description: This is a cover version of Frank Sinatra's hit song "Strangers In The Night." This is one of SoSaLa's favorite songs. He listened to this song for the first time on a local radio station in Tehran when he visited his family in the 60s. He decided to cover it after listening to Sid Vicious' version of this song.

Flamenco as we know it was “born” in Spain in the mid-19th century. But for centuries before that, Roma (Gitanos, Gypsies) had been living in Spanish cities, often rubbing shoulders with the descendants of Africans (Moors), who had been there as both citizens and slaves going back to Medieval times and earlier. This overlooked pre-history of flamenco is explored in Miguel Angel Rosales’s groundbreaking film Gurumbé. In this program, we meet Rosales and learn to hear flamenco in a new way. We also meet maverick flamenco artist Raul Rodriguez, inventor and master of the tres flamenco. Rodriquez’s solo concert, sampled in this program, is a tour de force and an anthropology master class, all in one. Produced by Banning Eyre.

Shūji Terayama Song

Bamdad Afshar & Otagh Band - Shūji Terayama Song (feat. Kaoru Osanai)

The music project SoSaLa is the brainchild of Iranian-American sax player SoSaLa. Fueled by improvisation, SoSaLa blends original melancholic melodies, and those of his native Iran, with Persian, African and African-American rhythms. Altogether, Sohrab calls his music "nu world trash". His music molded by his international background.

 “…(SoSaLa) blends many elements from different cultures and time frames: funk, rock, jazz & ethnic sounds, electric & acoustic instruments, all swirling around one another in a most mesmerizing way. Sohrab does more spoken word than singing, spewing out his views to bring the world closer together. The festive spirit of the music is often infectious…I can agree with his view of our splintered world by trying to pull different threads together into a hopeful mosaic. Some of the melodies remind me of the Jewish prayers heard in my youth but perhaps these melodies are universal in nature and shared by numerous cultures. You can visit Saadat’s website at www.sohrab.info and learn about the real Iran which you won’t find out about in the controlled news of the world. A toast to a New Iran.” (Bruce Lee Gallanter, NY’s Downtown Music Gallery co-owner, Feb 24, 2012)
