A proposito di questo titolo

Mumtaz Shireen (1924-1973) was a pioneering Urdu critic and short story writer. Born in Hindupur and raised in Mysore, she migrated to Pakistan in 1947 and soon became a prominent voice against the autocratic tendencies of the Progressive Writers' Movement. In this reportage, written some time between 1958 and 1961, Shireen provides an account of the editor and musicologist Shahid Ahmed Dehlvi's series of lectures and workshops on Pakistan's musical heritage. Dehlvi toured Bangkok, where Shireen briefly resided, under a Southeast Asia Treaty Organization (SEATO) arrangement, and was invited to address audiences as part of a broader cultural exchange between member states. While describing the contents of Dehlvi's presentations, Shireen elaborates on his unique expertise in both music and literary production, and how the two came together in his enduring contribution as an editor and essayist.Featured music:
