In this episode, Darah and Rebecca chat with Arson Fahim – a pianist and composer living in Afghanistan. We chat about how Arson was inspired to start learning the piano, the perception of music in Afghanistan and the risks that musicians take to pursue their passion. We were inspired by Arson’s dedication to his people and his music.
