Arooj Aftab: Tiny Desk (Home) Concert (quelque part entre le jazz indie et la musique trad)
@bortzmeyer Merci Stéphane. Un Tiny Desk Concert d'un nouveau style : il ne se passe plus dans le petit bureau / bibliothèque de la NPR mais dans une maison en cours de réhabilitation (un ancien couvent à Brooklyn) plus spacieux mais sans public. Un moment d'apaisement musical dans le contexte actuel. Je mets un lien Invidious en plus et je rajoute quelques tags musicaux.
