Asian Window

From BBC:

“We have been doing music together since we were six years old -- as long as I can remember,” says Haniya Aslam, as her cousin Zeb (Zebunissa) Bangash sits beside her.

“It started out as a fun thing at family functions.

“Music was very much a part of our family set-up -- my father was an aficionado and all my uncles could play an instrument.

“Our grandmother was also a big influence -- she was a poet and was fluent in three languages.”

While certainly not a typical Pakistani upbringing, it’s hardly exceptional among educated urbanites.
