Sad Piano Music in Syria

By: Ludella Awad

Narrated by: Estrella Garcia-Vigil

Sad Piano Music in Syria is a collection of 43 poems about Syria and its people from the memories of Syria before the civil war to its destruction and exodus of millions of refugees, told in verse from the point of view of a 16-year old Syrian American high school student. Also included is an interview session with four relocated Syrians, including two recent arrivals.

Sad Piano Music in Syria is narrated by the mesmerizing voice of Estrella Garcia-Vigil, which captures the poignantly dark mood of the Syrian national tragedy seen through the eyes of a storyteller thousands of miles away, but whose heart is in the homeland of her parents and ancestors.
