Happy Holidays to all who celebrate this time of the year. Here are classic #Christmas tunes played on the rubab — Afghanistan’s national instrument.
Rubab’s origins dates back to 7th century central Afghanistan. But today music is banned in Afghanistan. Afghans LOVE music, especially rubab melody.
