VIDEO: Sudden Yemeni Folk Music in the Streets of Taizz


I was wandering the streets of Taizz, when this Yemeni folk musician stops and offers to play a tune for me, as a crowd gather around to watch.

This video is raw and unedited – recorded live on a Mini-DV tape camera, which was limited to a SD resolution of 576 x 480.

Another example of beautiful Yemen – before the current civil war and if ever – god forbid, mass tourism.
