Introduction
Like many lands riven by conflict, Afghanistan and its vexed politics have spawned diaspora communities near and far.
Music is the lifeblood of such communities, linking them to a common homeland through song, poetry, and a sense of tradition.
Homayun Sakhi, formerly of Kabul, later a refugee in Peshawar, Pakistan, and presently a resident of California, is possibly the finest rubab player of his generation.
