World Music: Traband, "Cernej Pasajer"
(Czech Republic) Traband started out as a rock band in 1995 but have since changed to an acoustic lineup of tuba, trumpet, clarinet, accordion, banjo and drums. Their music is a melange of Czech folk, Jewish, and Gypsy influences, interpreted in an urban way. This beautifully shot video really shows off the beauty of the Czech countryside while it tells the story of an immigrant who feels he has no future, but remembers his past with remorse. "I have it all in a faded photo taken sometime last century Just that and a feeling of homelessness I carry still now in my memory"
