Aziz Herawi
Afghan musician
Aziz Herawi (1952 – January 29, 2011, in Herat, Afghanistan) was a noted musician from Afghanistan. He specializes in the dutar and rubab, both plucked string instruments. Afghan musician Aziz Herawi was seven years of age the first time he heard the strings of the dutar being plucked. He talked one of the family servants, who hid it in a blanket, into buying the instrument for him from a shepherd. The boy would wait until his father was asleep, then sneak into the woods surrounding their home. Alone, in the dark, he practiced, teaching himself to play the long-necked 12-stringed dutar. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aziz_Herawi
