Angkor Wat is a magnificent temple in the ancient Khmer capital city of Angkor in modern day Siem Reap, Cambodia. My trip to Cambodia came after I met Peter Gabriel while recording at Real World Studios in England. Peter suggested I get in touch with Cambodian Human Rights Activist and musician Arn Chorn Pond. We became friends and he asked if I would be willing to come to Cambodia to help him make archive recordings of some few remaining Traditional Cambodian master musicians.
The bamboo woodwind I am playing is called the Pie Pook and was made for me by master flutist Yim Saing who is pictured in the video teaching us in Phnom Penh. All the photos are original and taken from my trip in the early 2000s and Jeff Greenway more recent visit in 2016.
