Description
We spoke to Siv Lie, founder of the Initiative for Romani Music at NYU, about the cultural context of Romani/Gypsy music.
The conversation covered everything from Django’s singular influence on the genre, to doing fieldwork in France, to Gypsy jazz pedagogy, to how the genre has evolved post-Django.
