- W149213261 abstract "From late 1940s radio station in Kabul had become centre for innovation and patronage in creation of a new popular music suitable for radio broadcasting. In a country where there was no university department of music, no conservatories, no music as part of school curriculum, no national sound archive, radio station was centre of musical activity and creativity. It employed a large number of musicians, singers, male and female, and composers. It ran various orchestras and small ensembles. The radio station provided new possibilities for musicians, mostly singers, to be recruited from amateur backgrounds.The best example is Ahmad Zahir, sometimes described as the Afghan Elvis, whose music is still incredibly popular and widely emulated today. Ahmad Zahir was much involved in creating and performing a modernised Afghan music, using western instruments, himself playing electric organ rather than harmonium. It is worth mentioning that Kabul's first international rock festival took place in 1975 (Dupree 1976). The radio station also promoted careers of women singers, perhaps most notably Farida Mahwash, who in 1975 was given honorific title of Ustad by Afghan government." @default.
