Raithane Bhakha
Raithane Bhakha is a podcast about Nepal's music. There are more than a hundred ethnic communities in Nepal, each one with one or more musical traditions. The podcast is mostly focused on the folk music of these communities, especially on indigenous and ritual music which is rarely played, heard, recorded or commercialized beyond its immediate community.
The podcast will also discuss other aspects of Nepal's music.
The podcast is produced by Sewa Bhattarai, focusing on songs she collected from the field.
