Sounds of L.A.: Mamak Khadem
GETTY CENTER
Harold M. Williams Auditorium
Sounds of LA kicks off with a return visit by local favorite Mamak Khadem. Her latest album, "The Road," invites us on a journey that includes her native Iran, as well as Serbia, Bulgaria, Macedonia, Greece, and Arab-Andalusia. Ever searching for threads of connection, she draws upon a treasure trove of traditional melodies, rhythms, and poetry to create a lush sonic landscape that is nothing short of intoxicating.
