Festival of Khmer dance and music
Sat, 13 February 2016

A week-long festival of music and dance kicks off on Monday evening with a performance by 50 musicians from Cambodian Living Arts in collaboration with master musician Kong Nay, Cambodia’s own “Ray Charles”, at the King’s Road Angkor.

The performance marks the beginning of the Dontrey Chub Met, or Friendship Festival, a celebration of Cambodian music, musicians and performers with concerts in nine different venues bringing together more than 100 artists from across the Kingdom and abroad.

“We aimed to include a good variety of styles, from traditional Cambodian orchestral through to ’60s rock ’n’ roll, hip-hop, rap and more, all with a Khmer flavour, though there are a few international acts as well,” said event organiser Ian Croft of 60 Road Studios, who came up with the idea for the event.
