Rainforest World Music Festival

hey all, check this out.. the RWMF 2003 at Sarawak Cultural Village.. ended last Sunday.. this is malaysia's premier traditional music and culture event that gathers the top in its class all around the world.. i only attended the three-day event on the last day, sunday.. and i was very impressed.. i've taken photos with some of the performers, including a Cuban, a Russian and an Englishman... and you get music from the likes of sultry Latin music, fusion music with traditional instruments set to world jazz, comical antics and street-performing acts, loud drums, high-pitched wind instruments that only uses one hole but can play so many notes (plus its meant to lullaby horses and cows in Russia), throat-singing (and it really sounds powerful) and a host of other musical skills that you don't find on Billboard countdowns that's been the hippest thing so far lately.. you guys should try to make it when it is held again next year.. it can be very inspirational stay cool..
