Man Singing

“Cambodian Music of Forest” was recording from ethnic minorities in Cambodia living in rural mountainous areas and countryside. The archive was recorded during a study-mission carried out by the Royale University of fine Arts, Phnom Penh, in 1969-1970.

The Bophana Center would like to express our sincere thanks to Mr. Pov Thonevath for providing us with these rare archives.

Produced by Société français de productions phonographiques Archive from collection: Thonevath Pou
