By profession and trade, I like to call myself a musician.

My parents brought me up predominantly on no music at all, actually.  They were surprised to see my affinity towards it when I grew into my age, and then, I started to learn my instruments by ear.  Back then, there was dial-up internet and floppy disks – not like today’s YouTube videos and detailed tutorials on learning music (which is fantastic, by the way).

Music from our culture was acquired by ear – which I am learning now by ploughing through the academic literature that is out there.  I guess, sometimes I attribute the way I learned my instruments has a link to my background.

In saying that, I want to share a video a friend and I collaborated on for the #JamNominate! hashtag that surfaced on social media mid-last year.

Enjoy.
