Persian Musicians 2 1998

 


The concert continued and more people got up to dance. I didn't dance, I sketched. These musicians were so good that I wonder if they were professionals. I was glad to capture these folks in mid-gesture. I also got to draw the drum - I think it was a doumbek. The word on the sign, "ZAMWI," is an acronym which stands for "Zoroastrian Association of Metropolitan Washington, Inc." I was very friendly with them back in the 1990s but now I never see them. That's all right I suppose, I needed to move on.
