Episode 1: Agota Zdanavičiūtė; the KANKLĖS and LITHUANIAN FOLKLORE

Transmitting from Vilnius, Lithuania, to the far reaches of the cosmos, welcome to the first episode of the New Old Ways podcast!

On this show I lay out my idea for the podcast, play some music, and interview Agota Zdanavičiūtė, a wonderful musician from Vilnius, about Lithuania's national instrument, her music and creative process, and we talk about life, culture, identity, having a place to call home, and more.

I hope you will let me know what you think of this episode, and please, share what you might like to hear covered in upcoming episodes. I will certainly talk to more musicians, but I plan on speaking with esotericists, teachers, writers, etc.
