Gypsy Music by Alan Ashton-Smith

This is a new history of gypsy music, from traditional performers such as Taraf de Haidouks and the Boban Markovic Orkestar, to more experimental groups such as Gogol Bordello. Covering the 13th century to the present, and from Romania to New York, Moscow and Andalusia, Gypsy Music reveals the remarkable diversity of this exuberant art form.
Alan Ashton-Smith is a writer and critic with interests in music and immigrant cultures. He has previously published on Romani Studies, contemporary East European and English literature and popular music. He is currently Research Development Manager for Arts and Humanities at King’s College London.
